I'm going really slow. But your photos are really tempting me. I'm thinking I'll get you an order after Christmas

Sure whenever you're ready

Greg, could you give some info on your tank like lighting, dosing, parameters, etc. It is a very respectable tank, and I would like to compare to mine.

lighting is a mix of MH & T5:
5x 250 w DE MH 14K, 2x 150 w DE MH 20K, 12x 54 w T5 mixed bulbs.
main parameters are as follows:
ca- 425 - 440
alk- 8.5 - 9
mag- 1400
ph- 8.1 in AM- 8.5 PM at lights out
temp- 78 - 81
sg- 1.026

I dose Randy's 2 part recipe #2

Flow turn over rate is approx 24,500 GPH or about 61 times an hour.

Thanks Greg! You sure have a lot of light on that tank - 7 bulbs to replace? Ouch, that's gotta hurt! You have great colors, and you don't use anything fancy. Do you use Salifert for your alkalinity test?

I use Elos for alk & salifert for ca & mg. If you count the T5's, which I do, it's 19 bulbs to replace, yikes.
