I don't see any sign of bugs there. At that close, they would be fairly noticeable.

Thanks! The lights are at 90% right now and will be at 100% this weekend. I upgraded the lens not long ago and before the upgrading the lens the radions were at 100%.

Awesome i am running my radion with the tir lense at about 85% peak 4 hrs a day. the rest of the time is ramping up and down.

How are you liking the radions?

Whew... I was worried for a while... Brad and Rich, thanks for reviewing the pic for me... I've never dealt with red bugs before so I am reliant on your knowledge and experience on this. I've always dip all my corals before they enter the tank. Much appreciated! :wink:

I currently have them at 90% for 8 hrs a day but I had also ran them for 4 hrs at start with the intensity at 50% ( i think...) and slowly increased the duration along with the intensity.

I like them but I had problems with one not long ago...

Dipping is not really a 100% guarantee. Best to inspect visually with a magnifying glass, they're pretty easy to see. I use a microscope on all new frags. That said, red bugs are one of the easiest things to get rid of. AEFW are the nasties to avoid!!

Looking sweet there Wayne. I also don't see any red bugs.
