I saw those T5 retros Tim is talking about when I picked up my 250w mh retro. Very nice indeed, I will be ordering a couple 36" T5 retros in the near future from Greg.

BTW, as I said last night, very nice reef Greg and thanks again.

Thanks for the kind words Tim and Jason.I will take some pictures of the setups tonight when I get home, including closeups of the endcaps and reflectors. Also the bulbs included with these setups are ATI bulbs ($33 each online). Like Tim said I would really like to set everyone up with a good deal on lights so let me know what you need. Please checkout www.coralvue.com for a list of products, also special orders /configurations are also possible. Thanks.

Thanks!

Dow, I checked out the fans last night also! They move a lot of air and are almost silent. I had to really listen to even hear it....

Sounds good. I'm building a new canopy for my 45 since I can't hang my pendant in our new house, and I need at least one fan... maybe two to make it. Current pentant is home-built with a 175w 10K bulb and a single radio shack fan. Works great, but I might need more air movement with the partially closed canopy.

Everyone,
My wife is going into labor in the next 24 hrs with our second child so it may be a couple of days before I post pictures and prices. I will try to get them ASAP. Thanks for understanding.

I couldn't figure out why I got no response from PM's, but it makes sense now. Good luck!

My T-5 actinics have really made a difference on the colors! I was running URI VHO and when I replaced them with the T-5's they really colored up! The purple cap that was a nice shade of brown under the VHO URI actinic is now a nice purple again under the t-5's.... Thanks again Greg!
