thanks, I felt like Dr. Frankenstein trying to put it together
MH will def up your chances of needing a chiller. IMO you'd be fine with a TEK standard or Elite T5 4 or 6-bulb, or check out AquaticLife fixtures,...
Thx GuitarMan! I take more pics of my tank than of anything, is that bad :)
if you're hanging, you can get 2 MH pendants, or go with a 48" T5 fixture with either 4 or 6 bulbs, there will be shaded areas if you have LR.
AM is Ammonia, but I think you prob tested it but forgot to list it. I would keep monitoring it, seems like params are fine. Hopefully it's just...
Hmmm, Leathers are pretty resilient, I would keep an eye on it. What is your AM at? How about your extended params like ALK/CA/MG? When my cabbage...
I love torches DB, I have 2. One is a normal green color, the other is one that had its colony bleached so looks like it's glow-in-the-dark now, I...
Thanks for the replies everyone. Here's a pic to the testament of my love of LPS, I picked up this radiant Frogspawn, best color I've ever seen...

karma for funny cat pictures:
+1 I had the TEK Elite 4-bulb with the fan issue, just got my care package. What a great company, they were super efficient getting back to me &...
Rather than spend the $ on more PC bulbs I would invest in a good T5 fixture so you can support any corals you get. You will want more, believe me,...
Sure 7 is fine, what are you trying to keep, LPS, SPS, softies, clams? What's the wattage per bulb you're planning on?
go with ATI bulbs & KZ Fiji Purple, better PAR. I would get this set-up if I was running a 4-bulb in this order: ATI Blue + KZ Fiji Purple ATI...
IMO you will need more light than that to support it. You can get away with maybe softies like mushrooms, zoas, or low-light coral like leathers....
