i like it this is the first halide bulb ive ever used so unfortunately i do not have anything to compare it to. and I do not believe I have enough hrs on it to fully experience the true color of it. the mh have been on the tank for about three weeks and the difference betwee the pc is amazing. corals are all much more vibrant and growing rapidly. It also shows the phosphorescence off very well.

if you get a shell make sure to clean it up real nice first, boil/rinse (fctasha)
As for the tank, I like it! Nice amount of coral and stock in there, nice scaping, looks great!

that is a sally lightfoot crab. and it is big. from tip to tip he covers my palm.
the conch shell was actually purchased like that from our lfs. they were already attached and it was been in the tank for well over a year now. I will try to get a close up of it tonight when i get home. what exactly are you wanting to see?
Thanks for the compliments everyone.

thanks for the replies. .
as for keeping the back glass clean. We have an over active sally lightfoot and algae blenny who do not stand for any mess. honestly we very rarely have to even use the mag float mostly I just scrape the coraline off the viewing areas.
The fish are:
midas blenny
Neon Psuedochromis
yellow chromis
maroon clown
Blue throat trigger
Algea Blenny
We have added a few more corals and moved things around so now that I know our tank is worthy of showing I'll take up to date pictures tomorrow.
