So for all of you that helped me figure out lighting about a month ago (the thread was "how does this sound for lighting"), i finally got the tank set up last night. Previously I had a 30g reef and a 55g FO, now I have one 55 gallon reef. I am using an Emperor 400 and a Sea Clone Skimmer (works great), under 330 watts of VHO (Lampsnow ballast), (URI bulbs: 2 Aquasun, 1 Ultra Actinic), one radio shack fan, with a DIY birch canopy and stand. Sorry so specific, but i don't have a website and I thought many newcomers and old members alike might find the info helpful at some point. Oh yeah, I have 40 lbs of live rock and 30 lbs of great base rock (eventually to be live). As soon as a get the pics into my computer I will post them under this thread. THANKS FOR ALL OF THE HELP FROM EVERYONE HERE, I MIGHT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOU ALL, BUT NEVER THIS SUCCESSFULLY AND CHEAPLY!!!! I really appreciate everything, David
