Lance's 225 gal tank

[fishoholic]

Eek! I believe I just jinxed myself. I checked on the tank before heading to bed and my anemone has moved from the rock he normally stays on to the rocks above and behind his normal spot towards the back of the tank I just pray mine doesn't go to far

Uh Oh! Keep a close eye on him, they can move surprisingly quickly.

Hey Lance,

How far off the waters surface are your 400's?

18"....... XM 15K's I had Geisemann 13K, but found them too yellow. With the XM's are 4x10K 39W T5's and 4x actinic 39W T5's

Yikes! I guess I better raise mine up. I've been thinking they are much too close at 6" lol

18" from the bulb, not the glass of the fixture. 15" from the actual fixture.
Do you have a heat problem at 6"?

Rarely, maybe once or twice a year will my APEX shut the lights down because the tank gets to warm. It has to be above 27/28c outside for a few consecutive days before the basement starts to warm up to the level that the lights push the tank over the edge.

I was more concerned with bleaching and such.. I'm running 2 IC 10k's and 1 IC 14k
