Thanks guys, I am very excited about it too. Now I just have to figure out a way to not lose any of my corals when I make the switch to halides. JerryAtrick is going to give me 3 screens, I think I remove one a week, thus slowly increasing the light that the tank is receiving.

I just went straight to the haldie ll when i got mine. Lucky nothing was shocked. Guess the 70 Haldie wasnt to much more than the corals were use to with PC... Maybe if I had a 10K bulb I woulda had to..
When are u gettin ur fixture?

I think you are lucky. I made a similar switch and I burned a few corals that were up top. I was to impatient and I removed all three screens after 3 days. The bulb that subie is getting is a one month old bulb I think. So the bulb will still be very strong.

I should be getting it next weekend. I will definitely take my time with the 3 screen method. I don't want to lose anything. I have located the superman monti that I wanted

So things are going great for the tank. I will probably have to reaquascape a little bit here soon to make room for sps
