Here is what I have, very similar to MN's. 2x250w XM 10k's with PFO ballasts, supplemented with 4x65w Current PC's (actinic). Retrofitted to my custom 120 canopy. Love it!!

Well guys I did a water change last night and another tonight, wich is about 30% total in 2 days. The Xenia might make it some of them look better. My brain that I loved I think is doomed, and the toadstool doesn't look dead but has not put out his polyps in about 5 days. I tanlked with my LFS...

I don't think it is the light. I placed the brain on the sand and it was under MH before I got it, and my first brain is on the sand and looks great. The Xenia I have had for 2 months and was growing like a weed. The toadstool I have had for 2 months as well and it has doubled in size...

Bigarn, the tank is 4 1/2 months old. I use RO/DI from my own 5 stage unit. No temp spikes that I know of. Temp starts at 79.2 in the AM and is 80.4 when the MH go off, has been this way since the start. I have 2 Icecap variable speed fans on canopy. shawnts, none of the corals are next to...

Green polyped toadstool has not opened in 3 days and looks like it has white dead tissue on it. Xenia which I had been propagating and trading is all dieing, Colt coral has lost some limbs and looks bad, and worst my beautiful open brain looks bad. All other corals including clam, acropora...

Looks like a palani tang or a tennent tang to me. JMO

Yeah I did the same with my turbinaria, but love it just the same.

Here is my 120g 4 months old and progressing nicely I think.

Great pics, love the reflection!

My hammer loves the middle tank under 2x250w MH. See!

I have 10K XM's as well and like them well enough. I am going to use them till they need replacing then I think I am going to try the XM 15k's. I also have 4x65w 03's, looks good that way I think.

Nice Mudplayer, looks like your galaxea (sp) is doing well. Keep it up.

Thanks Hispaniola. 2 more actinic feather and close up of green polyped toadstool.

Well mine is a total of 35g I think. My fug is 15g, full of Cheato algea and I have 0 Nitrates and 0 Phosphates. I guess size depends on what you want to do. This set up works real well for my 120g.

Thanks NM I value your opinion, and truly admire your tank. Your Acro pics I think did the most to spur me on. Hopefully all goes well and I will monitor them closely.

What you need is some hermits, about 10-20 of em. Or add 1-2 fighting conchs. I have 4 and they do a decent job of cleaning the sand. I think cleaner clams yust help to lower your phosphates, which would be beneficial as well.

A little more color

Here is what I have, it is sump/ fuge all in one piece. The tank is powered by a Sequence Dart pump=2400gph in my 120. Sump/fuge is acrylic. HTH

Hate to say but looks like tissue death to me. But I don't have much experience, so just what it looks like to me. Sorry. I hope not though.

8-10 maybe at the base of the polyps, or am I just seeing things?
