uwdanno Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 You think the a160we would be just enough? Lol I'm bumping up to the same tank as yours and don't want to spend the money of not necessaryI already have the light btw I wish I knew enough about the 160 to give you an honest perspective but I dont. I got an awesome deal from a local reefer here on my 360. I do think there are a couple on here using the 160. Without researching far, seems to me that it would work. Quote Link to comment

JMCollins24 Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 Well, I lost one of my clowns Tested my params and nitrates are a bit high around 30ppm. Changed out my filter floss and will be doing a WC today... I'm pretty sure that the nitrates, coupled with the aggressive behavior from my single spot domino clown, caused the demise of my onyx clown... May be time to look at trading it in and getting a pair that are already paired. Quote Link to comment
Normang Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Thanks everyone for the light responses. I love the looks of the XR15 with the RMS the best, But I just can't justify the price point of the duo or xr when people seem to be loving the Prime over the fusion 20. Its full spectrum, has wifi control-ability right out of the box, and looks pretty decent. for the price point its as great option. Does it have the same par as the Duo or Xr, no it doesn't, but will it work for the needs of the inhabitants of the tank, probably since I'll be going with softies, mostly LPS, and a few SPS. Like someone said on hear go with what I think looks best and with my gut. Well, I know for sure I love the looks of the Xr the best, but does it justify paying another 200+ more for the looks? ha Well, I lost one of my clowns Tested my params and nitrates are a bit high around 30ppm.

It looks like the time to make that trade has arrived. 1 Quote Link to comment

cromag27 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Alright.. an update... Since my last update, I've added a few things, lost a fish, and added a nice amount of coral! Equipment Additions IM Ghost Desktop Skimmer Yeah how's that skimmer working out for you? 3 Quote Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Yeah, so what's the deal with that Ghost Skimmer and your chargeback claim? You might want to attempt to explain to the seller who you got the skimmer from and whose money you took, as well as explain to the rest of us, what's going on there. Did it stop working? I mean, you got the skimmer, said it was good, asked for a chargeback, and then were awarded it. So the seller is out his skimmer, his $80 PLUS the chargeback fee he had to pay. Surely there is a reason other than you being a conniving thief? 2 Quote Link to comment

HarryPotter Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 +1. This is what makes sellers paranoid, rightfully. Quote Link to comment
braaap Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Send some to JM. Maybe he will choke on it. Quote Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Still no response? C'mon man. We see you logged in. The longer you wait to tell your side of the story, the more it looks like you are a huge d-bag who scammed someone out of money. This hobby is pretty incestuous - lots of people frequent many forums, etc. You are also from FL - lots of hobbyists here and elsewhere are in Florida. You may be burning LOTS of bridges. 2 Quote Link to comment
smeagol108 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 ^+1. Your on the forums, active and seem to want to be part of the community. Share your side of the story and work it out with the seller. Quote Link to comment

This DBag has 2 account here atleast. JMCollins24 and CDnano24. He goes by Chad Duke and many other names. Apparently his name is Josh as well. Here is his most recent scam thread. He has scammed atleast 3 people on NR so far. LINK 1 Quote Link to comment
Mr. Microscope Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Wow! This is crazy. Thanks for the link braaap. It's odd that someone would put forth so much effort and risk for so little money. He must be doing this all over the internet if he's trying to make any real money. Quote Link to comment

NanoReefMinimalist Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I have been eyeing the radion on fusion 20 because of the solid mount. The AI prime is good as well but its mounting options are all crap. The only concern is the weight. I have the concern that the glass would not hold the weight of the light with a single joint point. Is the light heavy? Quote Link to comment
