Decided to re-do my old 2.5 that was being ignored. So I added in frogspawn, Mean greens, green yuma. Then removed the 18w PC fixture for a 24w T-5 cadlight fixture. The colors and look are so much better with T-5's!!!!

I originally bought the whole system, Tank, water, rock, coral, bubble/sponge filter, and light for $130. I have been switching out different components. If you want a nice unit check out the 5.5 from cadlights.

Here's what I have come up with....
