    All you need now is to frag your corals.....what could be sweeter than winning this saw in the raffle?

    INLAND HOBBY DFS-100 REEFKEEPER SAW
    [​IMG]
    As seen in http://www.reefhobbyistma...3/issue11/pages/10.htm" Reef Hobbyist Magazine! Coral fragging has just gotten easier with the ReefKeeper saw. It is made to meet the specific needs of Reef Aquarists:

    - Reduced Heat Transfer Yields More Viable Frags: Heat is the enemy when cutting corals; it destroys tissue and seriously affects viability, especially with sensitive species like chalice corals. The DFS-100 ReefKeeper Saw employs a continuously cooled narrow diamond blade to dramatically reduce heat transfer to the delicate tissue when cutting. Less heat means more viable frags can become healthy colonies to swap or sell.

    - Clearance to Handle Larger Specimens: Saw through materials as tall as 3 1/2" - something you can't do with cut-ff wheels, tile saws, or any other band saw. So go ahead, tackle that Tubastrea or Favites or any large specimen with confidence.

    - Narrow Cutting Path: Rotary tools and tile saws plow a wide swath through your valuable stock. The narrow diamond blade of the DFS-100 ReefKeeper Saw is removing the least possible amount of material as it cuts, resulting in less waste—up to three times less!

    Yes!!!! Another LED light in the raffle!!!
    Orphek, an international company producing innovative LED lighting for the aquarium, has donated an Orphek DIF PENDANT SERIES 50 - 20k Reef Aquarium LED Light. This LED pendant is designed to replace your 250 MH light.

    Orphek DIF PENDANT SERIES 100/50/30 – Reef Aquarium LED Lights
    [​IMG]
    Revolutionary, Powerful, Efficient, Versatile, Durable
    It is a fact that blue LEDs provide low lumens/watt. The Orphek R&D team invented a revolutionary emitter with a new TWO-in-ONE technology for use in the DIF Pendants Series: the first LED lighting solution mimicking a halide style light, without the addition of blue LEDs for daylight effect, offering you several color temperature options: 16000K,18000K,20000K and 25000K.

    That means you won’t need to install an extra blue LED fixture to achieve a daylight effect for your tank.

    Moonlight :Royal Blue,Royal Blue & UV (TWO-in-ONE )

    The DIF Pendants Series are solutions for cube tank ,large reef aquariums, aquaculture facilities, and public aquariums with three different power options, and 04 interchangeable lenses in 45,60,90 and 120 degrees to choose from, according to your needs.

    DIF-50 – 50 watts – Our DIF-50 fixture replaces a 250w fixture.

    Depending on the lens being used, these lights are perfect for lighting large areas 24″ (or shallower), or very deep (up to 72+”) aquariums with 45,60 degree lens. By using high quality, custom ground, interchangeable optics and providing an incredibly efficient LED chip, Orphek has surmounted previous LED depth and spread hurdles and pushed LED lighting technology even further!

    HIGHLIGHTS
    -Two-in-One Technology mimicking a halide style light, without addition of blue LED for daylight.
    -Color temperature from 14000k to 25000K (check our spectrographs and photometrics).
    -Moonlight :Royal Blue,Royal Blue & UV (check our spectrographs and photometrics).
    -Easy to be installed, our DIF series LED pendants are designed for plug-and-play use.
    -Pendants are entirely self-contained, not requiring external ballast or fan.
    -Completely rustproof, and can easily be suspended.
    -Incredibly versatile, pendants are available in three power options: 100 watts, 50 watts, and 30 watts, and the lenses are easily changed between 45,60,90 and 120 degrees.
    -Cool operating temperature.
    -Are environmentally friendly.
