    Somethings eating my soft corals!!!

    I have a ton of zoos, xenia and gsp and I think something is munching on them! All the frills on my zoos look like they have been eaten off, the little hands on my xenia areall odd sized like they've been chewed on and my gsp are totally wiped out. Only thing I've added recently are 4 pepermint...

    T5's & PC's together?

    I ended up picking up a T5 HO fixture on the net, it is a 39w x4 unit w/ 2 10k and 2 actinic bulbs. Measurements say it will fit on there with my existing PC (2x 65w) fixture, but would that just be overkill? It would be roughly 290w total. Oh, and this is on a 29 gal tank so it'd be 10w per gal.

    70 lbs of LR in a 29g

    So I just added 30 lbs of live rock to my existing 40 lbs in my 29g tank and it looks awesome! Are there any downsides to having this much LR in a 29g tank? Also I have a 10 gallon fuge with an additional 10 lbs of liverock in it also. Only thing I could think of was swimming room for the fish...

    Looking to trade Coralife Lunar Aqualight

    I have a brand new in the box 24" Coralife Lunar Aqualight that I'm looking to trade or sell. I decided to go with MH, so if someone is looking to downgrade maybe we can work a deal.

    PC's or T5's?

    What would be best for a 29 gal tank that I want to keep mostly softies but some lps also. I'm trying to decide between PC or T5. Is their one that is better than the other all around? I was going to go the halide route, but everyone i've talked to seems to think it will be overkill and i'll...

    Green star polyps melting zoanthids?

    I got a new frag of green star polyps and I have limited room in my tank, so I had to place them near a rock covered in zoanthid polyps. They are barely brusing the zoas, but where they touch the zoas look like they are melting. Is this known to happen with green star polyps? If I move them...

    Current Sunpod HQI owners... How do you like your Sunpod MH unit?

    I'm thinking about getting one since it is one of the few halide units that will fit my 30" long 29 gal tank. How do you like it overall? How is the "stock" HQI bulb that comes with it? Are the LED's actually useful? Looking back would you have bought a different unit?

    Lighting for a 29 gal?

    So I need to get lights for my new 29 gal, but the options are somewhat limited. I was thinking of getting the 24" Aqualight Pro (the one with the 150w halide for 280w total) since I can get it at cost, only thing is how will I mount it? The tank is aprox. 30" long on the 29 gal. Does anyone...

I was wondering if these lights would work for fish. They look similar to Metal Halides, but "charge up" when ypu turn them on and are...
