250w is beautiful. On such a shallow tank, do you really want a sunpower?

 

If you do 250w, get a nice mini reflector (lumenbright comes to mind) and get a radium. They are beautiful. best bulb out there IMO. Not windex blue, but great pop.

 

I'm running the EVC 250w DE 20k now, and it's pretty nice.

 

T5s are the jank though...

 

You do get the first frags. You want a frag of joe the coral? It's a fully encrusted ORA plug... I accidentally broke it. It's 4 mini branches on it. FS or FT :D

Updated FTS March 4, 2010. Transferred more stuff, changed bulb to a 14k to a 20k EVC. Looks much better than the old bulb. Not too blue, good pop.

Another attempt at a shot of the deepwater. This thing is much greener in real life..

Ugly Pink Lemonade. Didn't have enough light in my other tank... Can't wait for it to color up :)

Palmer's Blue mille, also not enough light.

Hold it for me. Let me get my tank stable and i'm down to trade or buy it from you. I have no space in the 10g. my problem with the 250w is that we leave the temp at 78 during the summer. With the neo nano, its gonna lookin weird with fans attached. The sunpower would be great i think for the 24" depth which leaves zoas and lps on the outer edges so they can be seen better

Okay, I will. Yeah, the sunpower is nice.

Forget the rics check out that pink chalice it is the shet. What kinda star is that?Does it bother your coral because I thought I seen a picture somewhere that said it wasn't reef safe. Looking very nice though.

It is a fromia star. Reef safe. Not a good purchase, pretty impulsive. Oh well :P

 

I like the chalice too. I'm not crazy about a bunch of half inch chalices on 3" plugs scattered on the sandbed, but they look nice when they melt over a rock. That whole piece was 30 bucks at a frag swap... :D

 

One of the clams died. I was a bit worried when after I took it home... The foot of one didn't seem to have much flesh. The other two attached immediately, but the other never did. :(

Nope, I have a little chalice/zoa island, so it stays away from the sps.

 

I think I'll change it to Dylan N.

 

I guess. She is trying to make every tank her tank :ninja: Nothing goes in a certain place if she doesn't want it there. Lol.

I rearranged, transferred some stuff, and got some more frags just to find out... My photobucket bandwidth limit has been exceeded.
