I usually see a small baby form..with feeding the acan about every 3weeks or so

the Icecap reflectors are better then the TEK..but both are good.

guess this should answer everyones questions about can they keep SPS with T5HO

nice..now what color..Red? wasnt a bad pickup for only 30bucks

I picked these up lastnight..I was thinking they are PE cause of the green mouth. They are taking some time to open after the coral dip but they are starting to open now

i would go with a ATI Aquablue special UVL AquaSun 10k ATI blue+ ATI Aquablue special or the UVL Aquasun 10k I would say that should give you ALOT better par and better light. with the extra Aquablue you might have a very slight blue hue and would help make those corals pop a little better. the...

hmmm...thats an odd one. never seen that but that acan you have in the jar I am guessing is the one that ran off. Looks healthy to me. Dont worry they are pretty strong. I bet it will be fine.

I wouldnt say they are BAD..but there are much better bulbs out there..I just changed out 1 actinic and 1 10k for 2 ATI Blue+ bulbs...they have much better color and PAR. gives me about a 14-18k color. I will probably change out the other actinic and 10k with a ATI Aquablue Special and a UVL...

are you taking T5HO? If so then I would get ATI, Giesemann, and UVL bulbs

use to have a 75 reef..I spent to much money on it..So I wanna keep smaller yes I am going to get about another 15lb of LR and make another mountain on the left side of the tank. I just have not got around to it yet..Like I said I have been going very slow on this tank compared to my past 3

ordering them online...I doubt many LFS carry good T5 bulbs and the ones they usually carry are JUNK

I am sure going slow on this tank compared to others in the past..Anyway I got my Blue+ bulbs today Stock so my combo right now is Blue+ Stock 10k Stock Actinic Blue+ I like it..it looks alot like the 14k Phoenix bulbs I had in the past..Maybe a slight bit more blue..but less then 20K I am...

hmm 6bulbs..you say 50w so i am guessing you mean teh 54w 48" ones I would do a ATI Blue plus ATI Aquablue Special UV AquaSun Giesemann Pure Actinic ATI Aquablue Special ATI Blue plus edit:HAHAHA wango beat me but picked the same stuff basically..lol

there is not one thing you shouldnt like about that lens..its built like a tank, image quality is razor sharp.

get a 30 or 40 breeder

I love breeder tanks. I setup a 20H but I really want a 30breeder..the only reason I setup the 20 was because I got a killer deal on a T5HO light that was only 24" and those breeders are 36" I just love how they are shallow but are 18" wide..

I like Phoenix 14k's ALOT..Very high par and a nice bluish hue and no actinics are really needed and makes your corals pop

the german reflector is just one big reflector..pretty much makes the big part of the T5's ability useless and not much better then PC lights. on the 6bulb with Individual reflectors the T5 light output is MUCH MUCH more rivaling a MH light as it helps direct all the light into the tank instead...
