    to explain the lighting ugliness. I am waiting for my new canopy and lights to come on back order. I have no corals as of yet, so i have my 24" T5's on the right hand side of my tank, and just a T8 on the left.......so I will post more when the new lights are on!!! will look better then!!!!

    So today I got my shipment from my suppliers, in British Colombia! I told myself I had to take pictures of the box and everything in it's original state but I got too excited and opened it all.

    What was in the box:

    1. New Life Spectrum Fish Food (love this stuff, 0.5mm sinking pellets Damsels love it)
    2. Coralife power center with timer and day/night outlets
    3. Titanium Grounding Probe
    4. Ehiem Auto Feeder

    Anybody use any of this before?

    I have used the Coralife timers. Should be OK as long as you don't have Halide's ;)

    Yeah the timer should be fine I don't have MH just yet. Still waiting to get back from my next trip and then I'll be upgrading my lighting....
