    Thanks. All that matters to me is I can atleast accomplish about 75% SPS in the tank.

    Well. "The fixtures are linkable" this is listed under both the 16"and 24" built in controller models. Pretty sure they can make most of their units 0-10v dimmable on request though. Not sure if they have any pwm kits or not, idk. Might be worth bugging them about again.

    Other than having the Breast Cancer Awareness stand, things have been placed on pause for a couple weeks waiting for material to come in.

    The units are power linkable, but as far as program linkable like the radions are they cant do this yet. But, you can set them all to the same time of day, and program them to appear to be in sync. For the price it's not bad.

    I was thinking about that all day yesterday. Just set each one about 30 minutes apart and have them assimilate the dusk/dawn effect.

    Yesterday was a good day. Spent the day with Tony Vargas. Really cool guy and also gave me ideas for my build. Everyone should meet him. He even gave a lecture on all the reef safe wrasses, who were good, who's were docile, who were PITAs, and even a reef safe parrot fish.

    crazy, for the most part of where ive been reading up they're relatively model citizens but unless you have a massive tank they will munch up your rock pretty bad and poop out sediment all over corals and grow to 15"+ needing heavy filtration etc

    it says they wont pick at corals but will pick around the edges of colonies at algae and since they're so big they can knock things over etc and hurt corals in other ways lol
