I do but the site automatically re-sizes them. Yep this is that same combo although the sunlight coming through kind of messed with the lighting a bit(in a good way) Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 That last FTS is just amazing. Link to comment

21093r53 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 i gfo shocked my tank a while ago when it first hit the market, no worries all corals will come back mine took about three weeks:/ Link to comment
sublunary Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Wow, I didn't think the tank could look any better, but the colors in the new FTS are amazing. I might need to question my devotion to LEDs when I finally get to upgrade in a couple years. T5's were a good choice here. Link to comment
Rehype Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 i gfo shocked my tank a while ago when it first hit the market, no worries all corals will come back mine took about three weeks:/ Thats really good to hear thanks for the info. My monticap took the worst of it but the good news is since they're fast healers im seeing noticeable improvement daily. Wow, I didn't think the tank could look any better, but the colors in the new FTS are amazing. I might need to question my devotion to LEDs when I finally get to upgrade in a couple years. T5's were a good choice here. Thanks so much sub i appreciate it.Im really pleased with the overall coloration under T5's. The colors are balanced and accurately represented. They're a very viable alternative to LEDS.In some cases they're arguably a better choice Link to comment
JNA_DESIGN Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Im still lost on how you keep a seahorse with two mp10's.... And amazing tank as always. Link to comment
Rehype Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Im still lost on how you keep a seahorse with two mp10's.... And amazing tank as always. Well mostly because the flow pattern is very diverse and i dont run them at full instensity. Not to mention she has plenty of coral to hitch onto. Thanks man. Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I saw this quote RC regarding t5 lol: More PAR in More Places. Link to comment
Rehype Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 I saw this quote RC regarding t5 lol: More PAR in More Places. Yep thats one of the main appeal of T5's. An even distribution of light unlike pointed light sources (MH or LED's) Which gives equal PAR distribution throughout the tank. This allows you to put coral just about anywhere in your tank and not worry if theyre receiving enough light. Link to comment

metrokat Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hype, I am convinced that amphipods molt. I see their molts floating about every now and then, the live ones have insides, these look very much like the molts from my crabs - perfectly formed, just hollow. Of course I may be stating what everybody and their blenny knows to be true .... Link to comment
