    Upgrading my lighting...advice please

    Museumgirl, I got the PFO retro fit 250w x2 Metal Halide kits. I am a DIY dummy but I had no problem installing them in my canopy. I have them surrounded by 4x65w Current PC's with dual daylight and dual actinics. Installed them all myself and love the lighting I get. Metal Halides do get...

    Is this Blenny reef safe? I saw one today at the LFS and want to get him but wasn't sure. Anyone have any experience with these guys, let me know. Thanks.

    Red Sea test kits...Anygood?

    I have Red Sea and WILL NOT get more! I hate it! The color schemes are hard to figure out and most of them don't give you a quantifying number to go with it. I learned my lesson, buy cheap get cheap. I am going to buy Salifert and spend the extra money to know exactly what my numbers are. HTH

    My New DIY MH Canopy w/ Pics!

    Masala, I have the spider light reflectors and the instructions said you could trim the overhanging edge off of them with metal shears and sand the edges if you needed too. I don't know what you have but if that helps.... I had enough room so I didn't need to do this. Hope you get them in...

    Emerald crabs

    Do emerald crabs molt? I have just pulled a very white emerald crab thing out of the tank, doesn't stink and doesn't seem like there is flesh in it. Is this a molt?

    Tank progress!!

    Funkyman, yes I did the lighting myself it was pretty easy installing it. I put 1inch spacers under all the mounts to keep it off the wood. The lighting is awesome, but I think I will try 20k's when I have to change bulbs. The only problem with the doors on the canopy is I can't reach the...
