wow, it's been awile since I've been online this place has really changed. Well I finally got my 72bf changed over to my 120 gal. tank this weekend. I'll try to post a couple pic's. All I have right now are a couple with just my actinics because it was so late when I got finished moving everything. I was so scared but it looks like we did well and didn't lose anything.

here's one of the old tank before we changed. I took a cutting from the colt and hairy finger leather and sold the mother colonies to a friend.

Thanks, I'll have more pic's tomorrow after the lights come on. Here's a question. I have dual 250 mh 10k and dual 65watt 03 actinics, Do you think that is enough for this new tank with my clams? Or should I try to save for the 400 watt mh?

Very nice...moving from one display to another can be very stressful...looks like you made the transition real well.

I have some lps too. Oh and the bulbs are ushio 250mh mogal socket. and oops the 03's are 96 watt pc's not 65 my mistake.

Thanks, I was wondering does anyone have an idea about my light question or should I start another thread.
