    Thanks guys, yeah I'm gonna tryto give him the benefit of the doubt and see what happens. The fish trap may be an issue, I'm gonna have to trap my clowns, wrasses, YT, and dottyback first as they'll go for the baited trap way before he will, at least as it stands now. Most of them damn near grab the food out of my hand before it even hits the water;)

    OK, so I've had a few issues with my led lights/controller. I'm 90% sure the controller got reprogrammed during the storms. Long story short, I planned on pulling them anyways, rewiring them, cleaning them up and adding some more colors. Instead, I decided to try an experiment, rapidled verse reefbreeders. So, I ordered reefbreeders 96 watt value fixture with all the colors dimmable. I'm going to put this on one side of the tank, and on the other put my rapid set up, after I add 2 reds, and 2 greens.

    So on one side I'll have: bridglux 12 7500k cool whites, 4 420nm violets, 2 480nm blues, 2 520nm greens, 2 660nm reds, and 2 630nm red/orange on one dimmer, and 24 455 royal blues on the other dimmer.
    on the other I'll have: 9 cw, 4 nw, and 12 rb/4 blue and then 6 violets, 2 reds and 2 greens.

    Should have the new rapid leds this weekend, BTW I love their new solderless led's much cleaner;)

    pics next week of the comparison
