  1. I had one come loose from the rock it was attached to. It's about 3" dia. It's currently loose and shriveled up, so the pic is of my other ones (there's 2) so you can get a sense of color and size. Only $5. Paypal holds. Thanks for looking.
  2. They just recently released a version with red: http://apolloreefled.com/shop/acti-red/ This RC thread has reviews of the white, blue, violet only version (beginning of thread), and of the version w/ red (post #82): http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?p=20390860
  3. This is awesome news! Welcome Joe! I have 2 of the SolarBlast Dimmable fixtures and love them!
  4. Thanks . No, I had to cut those out myself.
  5. Well, here's the project box i implemented:
  6. Ahh!, that's why my Apollo Reef LEDs flash every once in a while. I'll tweak my programming. Thanks!
  7. I cracked open the meanwell driver. There are some simple heatsinks inside, but it's the pcb which is directly screwed to the bottom part of it's housing. The clamshell housing doesn't have any vents and actually has gaskets along the outer edge creating a nice seal. My understanding is that without any applied voltage to the dimmer controls, then no DC output is made. Thanks for reply Tim.
  8. I am wanting to learn what others have done with their meanwell drivers. Pics are a plus I know I can simply solder the bare wires then heatshrink and keep things "exposed" per se, but I was thinking a nicer solution would be to place it inside a project box and make a clean interface using standard IEC power cord (think pc desktop power cord), rj45 for the dimmer controls, and cannabilize the cord + tip from an a/c adapter (i'm connecting to Ecoxotic Stunner strips). One concern is how much heat do these things generate? The project box has a aluminum lid and I could easily drill ventilation holes as needed. Thoughts & suggestions appreciated. TIA
  9. I saw my tuxedo urchin releasing this white stuff from it's top (not quite dead center though). I usually see it releasing pellets (top, dead center) which I will assume is poop of some sort. Any insight appreciated! Pic: Video (it's still uploading as of 3:50p - another 1hr to complete): http://youtu.be/4PU9LMPBrb0
