Sinistard Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Looking good. I have a couple questions if you don't mind about you lighting. I'm thinking about setting up a 55g tank. I have spent the last 2 days trying to decide on lighting. I was originally going to do some kind of retro MH and use a coralife PC fixture I picked up for cheap but the more I look into it the price is going to end up being close to the same as something like your aqua medics ocean light. So I’m thinking I may just bite the bullet and get a pre made pendent. My question is, are you happy with the light dispersion from you fixture? I think you have the 36" model and was wondering if you ever wish you got the 48" version. I was talking with Chris and he suggested the 24" model if I wanted to save some money. I'm a little worried it would not be enough light on the sides of the tank so I figured for not the much more I could get the bigger fixture. Well I guess that’s it, any suggestion you might have would be appreciated. Thanks Link to comment
Orange Crush Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hey everybody! Friendly neighborhood NR moderator here. You may have noticed this thread has changed a bit since last you loaded it. If you didn't notice, read on and enjoy Tigah's tank. I deleted a couple dozen posts and edited a few more. While these were overwhelmingly in Tigah's favor, I felt it better to just wipe the slate clean. If anyone wants to leave feedback on any vendor, you're welcome to do so in the vendor/trader feedback forum. Hijacking a member's thread for this purpose isn't a very nice thing to do, and if it's being done for the sole purpose of spamming, that's even worse. If anyone has any comments/questions/concerns about their post being edited/deleted, please pm me privately and I'll do my best to help you out. Please don't post about it, either positively or negatively, in this thread. Let's just keep things on topic. Thanks for everyone's understanding, and on with the thread! -OC Link to comment

I am definitely satisfied w/ the 36" lights, and actually think it's better for us shotgun reef (mixed SPS and LPS) keepers since you want some areas to be a little less intense. 36" light over 48" long tank is perfect imo. so a 24" light over a 36" long tank should work out fine as well. hth.

TheCoralReef731 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Hey Tigaboy, do a left-side and a right-side shot. Your tanks so big, that it is kinda necessary Link to comment
Babycakes Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 yes! i agree with peter or post one major bandwidth hogging ginormous picture. i'd like to see what you got going on in the bottom of your tanks and are your clowns captive or wild? Link to comment
Babycakes Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 oh and should i mount that chalice i bought from you? i have no clue how it should grow..is it encrusting? anyways it's a very hot pink now and the eyes are a yellow lime color now. great stuff! Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Looks like it's now covering about 80% of the reef plug. And this is how it looked back on 7-28-05: And it was just mounted around 7-6-05: Link to comment
Kogut Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 You always have incredible growth, dude. I need a frag of that someday, btw. Link to comment

BelowH2O Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 That montipora is looking awesome! Great pics too. Link to comment
TheCoralReef731 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Is that what it's like on all your corals. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 it varies. a lot do grow pretty fast, but there are always exceptions. I have a micromussa that I got about 5 months ago and it went from 6 polyps to now 25 polyps (and I fragged it a couple times here an there). But I also have an acan lord that didn't grow at all for first 5 months, but just recently started to pick up growth rate. but sps have pretty fast growth rates in general and in my tank. the rainbow has just been exceptionally fast since in general they are supposed to be slow growing.
