Do a search on-line for LifeReef overflows...you'll find a lot of good info/pics...plus they are a quality product that perform as designed. I run a pair of the slime-lines currently and couldn't be more pleased.

LifeReef on one...Marineland SOS on the other...extremely happy with both.

Hey CM, what did you decide about lighting?

 

[cmpowell]

3 250 wt mh and i was thinking of 2 110 vho.Would this be a good comb for everything except clams and maybe a fes sps.

I would say with that lighting, you could even have some clams.. Unless your tank is really deep..
On another note.. I like 4 VHO setups with Halides. Alows more dusk dawn affect and adds some nice color

Nice choice, and i second what wamp said. 4 vho would be nice, but you could do it in "waves" buy a set of two now, and wait a little while. If you still wanted them, buy two more. That would give a real nice dawn/dusk set up. I can tell you where to find a 220w VHO setup for about 70 bucks (w/o bulbs) if you still have my email.

wamp i had been rolling over the idea of 4 but really hadn't made a decision on that.Would i be better off in the end result if i go with 4 for the dusk to dawn as you said and then 3 10000 ushios.This was my total light idea in the beginning but with all the comb of lights i started second guessing myself and giving myself headaches.
