250 Gallon Starphire tank

[littlesilvermax]

+ T5s (3 foot & 4 foot 11K T5s + 3 foot & 4 foot Blue+ T5s)

[littlesilvermax]

+ 3 10K halides (10K ushio, 10K AB, 13K Geissman, all 250 DE)

All look almost exactly the same, even though the Geissman is a 13K.

That pic of your tangs on page 11 is killer. Looking forward to seeing that blond Naso grow up in there - I used to have one that would dash the length of a 6-ft tank in about, oh, 1/10 of a second... Maybe streamers will slow him down a little?

Thanks for the effort on this - very thorough, informative, entertaining.

One question - does Bow Valley use PPG Starphire(tm) brand glass, or another manufacturer's low-lead equivalent?

Thanks for the kind words.

Mitch (from Bow Valley, who cannot help but lie) swears he uses PPG, but others say no. I have compared mine to others that for sure are and I couldn't tell the difference.
