As the title says I thank everyone who got zoos from me. Due to your efforts my animals now live under upgraded lighting. That is a new IceCap 250W ballast and a new Venture 14000K bulb. It doesn't match Jonathan's tank in brightness, but it does look good. :smilecol:

I just hooked it up this morning, so I have not tried to photograph it yet. I will have a go at it this evening when the window in the background is no longer sunlit. :eek:

Good to hear bob :) so you're hosting the next get-together? LOL

Now the real question is... When do the old lights go up for sale? :mrgreen:

How do you like the 14K? I found mine to be quite blue at first, but after a few weeks it burnt in nicely. I think that spectrum with 10KK and 420 supplemental is the perfect combo.

Right now it is nice and blue. I have no plans to supplement it ever. :biggrin:

I have had it a couple of months. It seems to like being close to that MH light, as it gets really large when the light is on. :mrgreen:

Bob, don't over-do the frag production. You'll start making so much money that the next thing ya' know, you'll be posting pic's of your new skimmer in action, or the ro/di unit you installed in your home... :lol:

p.s. The 52 looks great !
