    I've got the MH itch again

    I've got the MH itch again

    A bit of my own creation, of course. Hamilton Caymen pendants with 14k DE Phoenix bulbs driven by a Lumatek ballast (x2). Then I've modded each...

    A Really Good Looking Light.

    Since we're on a sponsor forum, I'll say this much. There's a German company out there which makes a halide fixture just as you describe. However,...

    What are my options?

    I'm willing to bet those are coming via Bob from up here. If you ever make it up this way, I'll have to get you over to his house. He's converted...

    What are my options?

    I've got the MH itch again

    I don't think I've posted about this on 3reef, but I did go back to MH after running LEDs for several years. I missed them too much, and the...

    for those experienced and possible traveling reefers I need advice

    Yes, you can simply use the BRS dosing pumps, but you will use up one outlet for each. No big deal so long as the 6 remaining outlets on the EB8...

    for those experienced and possible traveling reefers I need advice

    You don't need a salinity probe. For now, just get the full controller and a pH probe. You can always add things later, but there's really no need...

    WHAT is this Stuff?...

    for those experienced and possible traveling reefers I need advice

    What do you use to check your SG?

    [IMG] Possibly the most used, best piece of equipment I own. I seriously don't know why I didn't buy one sooner.
