Acrylic: I just spent about $1500 on lights. The last thing I wanna buy is another $300 meter. LOL. here is my question though. I hooked up the Sol Blues. Everyone says run them at 50% or less to acclimate. I have three options. White output, Blue and Purple output. What will burn the...

nevermind. got it.

Just got Pendant hanging system for my new Sol Blue lights and I can't figure it out.. Please help. Any instructions? Didn't come with any. Hanging system model number is AI MT1100

But how do I know at what intensity to start at? I would like to start at the same intensity as the PC I have now. Ya know what I mean?

Well the intensity can be controlled so I guess I could play with that. Problem is knowing what power I was at to what Im gonna have. This is gonna be annoying Im sure

Im going from a Current USA PC fixture to 2 Aqua Illumination Sol Blue LED light. Is there a concern of burning or damaging coral with these new lights? I know I can control the intensity of the new LED's but don't want to put out too little light or too much. Any suggestions? Anyone deal...

To be honest I really do not know much about Par readings but I can tell you this. Speaking to AI representative he advised me that with these new Sol Blue's that I would only need two units over my 120. The whites that they had before the blues, I would have needed 4. He said that these...

Im pretty Pysched! Just have to see how to hang this unit. Never hung a lighting unit before. Any helpful hints?

cover your tank. That will slow the evaporation. Glass cover

Well it has to help Phosphates at the very least. And that is a huge help. Im not sure what it is exactly but they are here to stay. I do have excellent filtration so the nutrients that the Mangroves suck up is SOMETHING. Something is better than nothing. Also the only mechanical...

Sorry for the quality but they are from my phone. Not bad though. Pics are top, roots then full view. I put that in caption but it does not appear for some reason!!
