I just got back into the hobby. I been out for s few years but still lurk around the forums.We recently moved to Washington but there is no active club up here. I know there is tons of reef smart people here, so i decided to stick around. Everything looks great so far but I need to find a inexpensive 420nm supplement light to add to it. If anyone has any suggestions let me know. My current setup is

-2x Current USA orbit led
-1x Marineland C-160 running just floss and carbon
-1wp 10 set to wave mode
-15 pounds of carribean live rock
-15 pounds Marco rock

Livestock so far

-10x hermits
-5x turbo snails
-1x Hawaiian feather duster
-2x emerald crabs
-1 tiger conch
-1x fire and ice zoa frag
-1x nuclear green paly frag
-1x purple pseudochromis

*got some frags, 1x premium snowflake, and snow onyx coming from mrcob in a few days.

Got my order from Mrcob and a few frags from barrier reef in Seattle. The Marco rock is growing coralline faster than I ever ever seen it grow. Silly clowns I got from Mrcob are hosting my magfloat.

Got my blues wired the other day. Everything looks really happy. I read before that the current usa orbit led won't support sps. My digitata already showing growth. Maybe because I got 2 of them.

The peach colored palys were closed when I received them. The guy threw them in for free since the were growing all over his front glass. They opened and ended up being gold Spangler's.
