I have some really cool pictures somewhere of my ocellaris pair hosting in my goniopora. =)

Oops, guess i shoulda checked the dimensions on the 40 watt. Doubt it will fit. Will try something a bit smaller =) Thanks guys.

Just finished adding my 10 gallon refugium to my tank, 20 lbs of caribsea aragonite fine sand and a few pieces of LR rubble with a bit of calurpa growing on them. What lighting should i be looking to get? I will be running this as a reverse daylight fuge, would a 40 watt flourescent work...

Thanks alot for the replies. I am planning on getting a RO unit soon, hopefully within the week. If I need water before then I will make sure to buy some somewhere. Cycle is getting close I believe. Ammonia 0, Nitrites about 2 and Nitrates are around 40 (going down slowly.) Soon as cycle is...

Greetings again all. I have a couple more newbie questions I could use answered. Thanks much. First, I have been cycling for about 11 days now. 90 Gallon Tank with 3-5 inches puka sand, 30 lbs base rock and 25 lbs Live Rock. Running 2 175 watt MH 10000k's and 1 40w Actinic (Cut down to 10 hrs...

Thanks for the replies all. If I hadn't just dropped 150 bucks on the 10000k's I would get some 12k's. Just wanna try and get something that will augment the 10k's. Thanks guys All!

Greetings, Just a quick question regarding lighting. I am running a 90 gallon tank with 50 lbs of live rock currently (will be adding more, will be building a reef tank) and using 2 175watt Metal Halides with 10000k bulbs. I have found a 48" 40watt flourescent that I am going to be putting into...

Thanks much. Figured it would have to be different, but thought I may as well ask. :)

Greetings, Yet another newbie question from me. I set up a new 90 gallon reef tank with 30 gallon sump on Saturday. Couldn't afford 100 lbs of live rock all at once so I bought 20 lbs of live rock and 20 lbs of baserock to get started in the cycle. Heres my question. I have a 30 gallon...

Thanks for the reply, Looks like that one side just takes a bit longer to come up. After posting this message I went back and the bulb was on. Weird. When I was adding my timer I had to unplug both lights, once again it took a while for the right side to come back on, but only about 5 mins...

Greetings, I just have a question about metal halide lighting. I just bought 2 10000k 175w bulbs, running on 2 seperate 175W m57 ballasts. I understand MH lights have a warm up time, when I plugged them in the first time both came on instantly then went out for about 1 minute or so. The...

Thanks much for the replies guys. Heading to the LFS in the next little bit, will check into some 10K's. Once again, thanks!

Doh, wrote those down so I would remember to add it to my post and then totally forgot. 175w m57 is on the side of the ballast. Thanks!

Greetings, I have a quick question about lighting. Just purchased and started to set up a 90 gallon tank, this will be a reef tank. I will be picking up live rock today to start the cycle and need to figure out what type of lights I should use. At this point all I have are 2 retrofitted Metal...
