Saturday Morning Growth Pics...

It's amasing looking back on old pics and seeing how the tank has progressed. Here's some 1 1/2 - 2 years growth pics.
The first one is December 2, 2003 to June 11, 2005.

What kinda lighting you running on your sps tank? I'd really like some acros in my tank but i'll need some halides first... kinda unsure what kinda lighting i'd need. Have a 46 gallon bowfront... if you have any suggestions on what would work.. please im all ears.

Thanks nemo
Speg, I'm running 2-400w 20k XMs on M59 ballasts. I think I'll be trying the 15k next!! With your tank, what's the dimensions??

 

[speg]

36" x 16" x 20" high
There is a setup from current usa.. the outter orbit series of lighting. For a 36" tank they got a 150 watt halide + two 96 watt actinics and 4 moon lights.. was considering that system.. would that allow me any acro you think? Or would I need 250 or 400 halides?
I really dont wanna buy a chiller

The 250w would be better IMO with a 20" deep tank. With the 150w you would need the acros on the upper part of the tank... which may be ok anyway. The reason I chose 400w on my 110g is so I could put them anywhere w/o worrying.

Thanks all, no fragging yet unless it's unintentional lol.

 

[f1shman]

How much did those frags cost you?

 

[reefnut]

They were around 12$ each... except the second one which was around 35$.
