    Yeah my lighting has gotten pretty over the top.

    I am running 5 AI Sol Blue
    2 true actinic vho
    2 ati purple plus

    I haven't had a chance to do a fresh picture set. Since I reorganized and added to my lighting.

    I wish I could, I am out of town till next weekend. Then I'll be able to get some fresh pictures taken! I got the lighting done and immediately had to leave. My GF is my tank buddy and knows how to maintain it at this point.. But I hated leaving just after making such a big change!! I have been so stressed something was going to bleach or worse...

    She swears everything looks amazing though. So I'm keeping cool being away.

    It's a LOT more even spread and visually appealing. I don't know if it will look that different in pics, but it's definitely an upgrade even without the t5/vho on! Just rearranging the leds made such a huge impact!

    Having a tank buddy is a must! Someone who is familiar with your entire set up and knowledgeable enough to know when to call you and when to take action.. and most importantly when to leave it alone!

    Thanks Bruh!! I have a few tablers that were near the edges of my tank that I expect to show the most improvement! How's your upgrade coming?

    Truly the best frag rack design ever!
    It gets dirty pretty quickly tho. The key to the aesthetics is to pack it with lots of frags to cover up all the algae that seems to love to grow on it.
