    Yea i caught a lot of crap for it but, i was only doing what was best for my corals, and personally i didnt think the LED's were it, i do miss the color under the LED"s but i can always add some moonlights that will make them pop just as much as my kessils did, and that is plenty for me, my halide is awesome, yea it sucks power but.. what in this hobby doesnt really? the corals (acropora's) are actually starting to finally encrust the plug after what 2 weeks? so i can honestly say, im glad i made the switch yes it cost me alot of cash but what doesnt in the hobby? or even just to live lol. Thanks for the back up ;)

    First time I saw your tank fellow Wisconsinite! Thats a beautiful scape with some sick SPS covering it. We may have to do some trading soon. In the coming months Ill have alot of frags to trade or sell.

    I think you would love a clam. I got one as a freebie and it is a fascinating creature. I know a guy locally who is selling the most insane ultra maximas for 90 bucks a piece. Its a great deal.
