Well I'm going MH now :) Gonna stick the leds in the closet. [IMG] Picked up a used set of 250w gear for $190. It came with: 2x lumen bright...
How's this deal look? http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/for/4674581684.html
Plus, he still says he got better growth under mh...
Is this a decent deal or keep looking?
Sweet man
Right. Lol. Ya I couldn't quit figure out how our dialogue wasn't lining up. I found a local guy with this for sale: 3x 250w SE lumen bright...
Oh gotcha. Ya I guess with the blues down they don't seem super colorful...
Well when I turn off all the lights my corals still glow with an eerie iridescence from within! j/k I don't really know, they seem to be colorful...
Ya I got a NO3/PO4 test kit ordered... I don't have any complaints about color as much as about corals stalling out without growing...
My two RB's can pull 422w wide open @ 100% on each channel (as per my kill-a-watt reading). How many watts should my 6ft tank have on it??? Are you...

I ramp from 50b/40w to 70/60w then ramp back down.
30" No my leds run at their max power setting for 3 hours. They are on for 12 hours a day total.
I've been running two Photon 32 reef breeder leds over my 210gal for a little over a year now on my mixed reef, which is becoming a dominate sps tank...
Should have bought a bigger house for a bigger tank (or two or three) to go in; my 210gal doesn't seem big enough anymore....
I recently changed the water depth of my sro3000 internal skimmer from 5.5in to 6.25inch deep and after a week of skimming it seems apparent that it...
If I were to start over it would be dependant on the space of my home (I would only start over if we moved to a different house). I would probably...
