    Is my coral life fixture good enough?

    It's not that you can't, but you will need to place more light demanding corals much more carefully. You may be restricted to placing sps right under...

    Metal Halide vs. T5

    Totally agreed. There are many threads on every forum about this. You can sum it up by saying each one has pros and cons. Either one will grow...

    Bill's 59 gallon rimless low profile

    Nice looking tank. Dingo, the first page said he was using a 250w MH pendant, Phoenix bulb and some T5s.

    Switching Over to MH [Update]

    Well, I'll give a little update. My new lights have been up and running for 3 days. I haven't noticed any visible difference in my corals, but that...

    base rock and live rock

    You really don't need any live rock to "seed" the base. There's a common sentiment that adding live rock to base rock will also speed up the cycle....

    current usa hqi/t5 light?

    T5 to MH 31-gallon tank

    IMO, those or more or less junk. I would go 2 150w pendants or a fixture. Pendants might be better because MH fixtures, to my knowledge, don't come...

    What is the best HOB for your buck?

    I like the Remora HOB. It works well and is compact to fit behind most tanks.

    What is this?

    What exactly are you referring to? The big white thing or the whitish area in the sand?

    Washed out colors

    That's where mine are at too, and I had the same problem. I can let you know how my switch from T5s to MH goes. It may help, but it may not.

    my 55 reef

    The pvc pipe is a creative solution to that problem. I'm sorry, your're right, I was refering to the gonipora. To my eyes, it looks really bleached....

    check out this light

    Don't go with PCs. They produce more heat, are less efficient and the bulbs need to be changed sooner then T5s. The bulbs are also more expensive and...
