Timfish Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 These are pictures of an Birdsnest I've had in one of my tanks for quite awhile. It has an interesting variation in coloration based on lighting and I thought I'd post it. The demarkation in the color is directly under the edge of the MH fixuture above it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannerfish Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Are there any decent par meters that are affordable? I've always been curious what my par readings are with the leds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannerfish Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 That name doesn't sound familiar. Doubt he'd wanna drive all the way up here to see what my readings are. Do you know any brand names of decent par meters? How would I know if its a good one or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victoly Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Now put an LED cannon on the other side and see if you can make it a tri-color. It would become a rare, collector coral, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would I know if its a good one or not? george lives up north and mentioned before about willing to help others. there are a few more members with par meters, some of them will try and charge you but we have several that will do it for free or donation, some simply because they want to see the par also.
