    Last stop was Leng Sy's facility. The tank was very cloudy (unknown reason) and showed the problems (burnt tips on acros) that he claimed were from using carbon on the tank. I asked him to explain why everyone else running carbon didn't have these issues. He just shrugged. I will say though that the corals were still very colorful.

    No problem, I just can't wait for the next one. We have a lot more sweet tanks in the club.

    Question - what kind of lighting does Trimble have?

    Marc Trimble tank is 5' x 3' x 2' His original lighting was 3 - 400 watt MH with an additional 2 - 175 watt MH to light the rear portion. Then I go involved. The whole tank is lit by 2 - 250 watt Radiums in 2 Sunlight Supply Lumenmax reflectors. The reflectors are 23" x 23" and are the same ones used by Dr Sanjay Joshi and Leng Sy on their big tanks.
