SouthFlorida_Tron Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 But my Crees are 9 nw and 9 rb...I wish I had like 12 RB and 6 NW instead. I just run the blues higher and adjust for the right colors. Your leds have 2:1 blues right???? Ya, and I still run them at 30%w 70%b lol And how did you manage to keep a BTA with SPS??!! Magic!

FlCandy Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 No worries! I'll even tell you where to get it! Lowe's or Home Depot, closet/shelving section usually near the back, and they come in different shapes, colors, and lengths..... Just make sure your fixture fits with the support bar. I used tap con screws for the concrete.took about 3 minutes to mount More pics on the mounting & install in the page 1 index. Figured any HD or Lowes but thanks! I know know exactly where to look! How did you get the light to hang from the supports? Did you take it apart and screw them together? Just wondering because it is a very clean setup! Note: I notice that yours came with the attachments on the top ready for you. I have them on the side I can work with that! LOL Thanks again! Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 The screws that come ontop of the unit fit right into the L brackets Link to comment

SouthFlorida_Tron Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 thanks guys. it is a SUPER SUPER SHARP LENS, but not long enough for me, will be returning and finding the 100mm instead... was worth a shot....may keep it as a portrait lens its so sharp...lol PS, u can tell what i mean how upclose its great, but like the borealis which is towards the back of the tank, focus was hard to grasp...

(which biggest move was the Tricolor Valida, who was getting repeatedly stung by the BTA, who is consuming the entire corner now! lol... Bird's Nest A small frag that broke from the colony...which this thing was half as big, and already splitting! Clown is kind of where the Valida used to be lol.... Link to comment

When I had my hood, I had to open the feeding door for temp control (pre-LEDs) and that goby jumped right out on second night lol.... Link to comment
BocaIvan Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Yea I have a hood and had been keeping it open to help cool off the tank. Didn't make a huge difference, so I closed it . I have LEDs but a 16 year old AC :facepalm: Cooling my house is rather difficult this summer so I'm gettng one huge, expensive ass chiller! Link to comment
