  1. So i have had this tank set up for about 8 weeks just been letting it do its thing with cycling was 150lb of fiji base rock and about 10 lbs of live rock rubble well i had it covered with a wool blanket as to not let any light in haven't had any lights turned on it sense i put the blanket on it 2 months ago all i have been doing it filling the ato with water well yesterday i pulled the blanket off and i am looking around and every rock has coraline on it not completely covered but very noticeable what i am confused at is i thought coraline needed a good amount of light to grow ?? which in a turn my biocubes will not grow any !!! any thoughts on this would be awesome

    Thanks

  2. So i am getting ready to order my bulb and i think i am going to do 3 blue 1 purple and 4 "white" as i like the more "clear" look the 3 blue and purple will be on one driver and the white will be on another also does anyone know where i can get 60 inch reflectors all i can find are 48 if not do you think the 48 will be fine?

  3. Ok guys i think i have decided which kind of lights i will use for my 135 build and i am thinking T12 retro fit only issue i am having is i dont know how many i should use i can get the 60inch 140w VHO lights pretty well priced but i dont know if just 4 of these will be enough and if so should i just do 2 white 2 actinic or should i throw some other colors in there?

    Thanks

  5. you left out tunze...

    lol

    Anyway i think at the moment the only thing that is stopping me from doing the wp40 over the mp40 is that the wp cant be programmed together without some type of controller from what i understand and that is with some mods to the wp please correct me if i am wrong on this but i would like to make the 2 work together without a controller if need be and i can do that with a mp40 correct? but now that jestep pointed out that he doesnt think that the mp 40s will be enough flow for the tank i keep second geussing but does the wp40 put out more flow then the mp40?

  6. Mp40. American made ftw

    i agree but they are also american priced ;) lol i have no issues with buying them but if i can use a chinese product and spend the extra money on idk say lights? :) i mostly just want to see how people like one over the other and such
