Lights

I know what rob was referring to awhile back when he decided it's the blue lights that make things pop.

These are evening shots with four t5 blue lights on. Of course it's with an iPhone because all of my money goes to the tank leaving none for a camera.

And the fat and oft gregarious starry "the pot bellied" blenny laying down in his bed for the night.

MH & VHO = old school and infinitely proven! ;)

Bullstedman, check out GrimReefer's posts on Reef Central in regards to bulb combos on a T5 rig. He's the guru.

Allan, I need to come steal some stuff!

Eric you're welcome any time, beer is in the fridge.

MH really scares me as far as water temp, besides I've got some really good growth as it is now.

I use the glo ballasts, and have four of the blues and the other six is divided between the whites and those purple and pink bulbs with names like coral excellerator and coral stimulator (whaaa?).

My frag tank is woefully underpowered though. That and I used a MH in it. Didn't care for it.

Thats why you go open top with MH, looks better. best growth ive seen is with MH ive owned tek fixtures, and ill always run MH, now a combo of MH + t5 supplement is ideal
