SPS and new lighting set up... compared to old...



Old lights...


New Set-up, have noticed huge diff in my SPS and rics since!







This Yuma was pale purple till I swapped to LED








That's all my pics for now... other then older pics of my previous tanks...

That's where all of my acans but 2 came from...I'd be careful saying that tho... I was banned for talking about that company a few months back.... stopped coming on here for quite some time cuz I thought it was VERY childish and pitiful that a certain mod (I will leave you un named for now,)banned me for something so stupid... but what can u do... took me 3 months to swallow my pride and log back into here...

You do however need to be cautious when ordering from there... He doesn't always reply very promptly.... I waited 5 months to FINALLY receive my doa/missing corals... however when I did receive them last week the order was amazing... and he did go over and above to get me what I was missing and also through in quite a few freebies that were very nice! But just be prepared to wait and stay on top of him if he doesn't answer... part of my problem is I got sooo busy with work I didn't try to communicate with him for 3 months.

Another big note on color intensity under LED is if you look at the blue/purple hornet zoos.... (purple/blue with yellow ring and yellow skirt) it is dull and washed out under MH yet INTENSE under LED....

Nice system you got going there.

What length is your tank? I noticed you're only running 3 led fixtures?
