What I don't want to see is people generally getting down on LEDs and perpetuating the idea that LEDs are no good and won't grow corals etc. because of negative experiences with lower end fixtures. ReefOcean, are you in the Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows area? If so I may be able to come out and do some PAR readings for you. Would be curious to see the unit in the flesh. |

The frags I just got (a few types of milli and a green plating monti are going as well as can be expected due to me attaching them to the rocks awkwardly. The monti is bright green with growth tips and the milli is starting to get much of their colour back and the polyps on most parts are fully extended during peak times. It is important to note that I have to get a few things non-light related issues completed before I can fully gauge the lights affect. I have to get my convict tang out to get nitrates under control, I have to raise my rock work about 4 inches (in a 30gal tall bare bottom this is hard) and I have to wait for my DKH to rebalance with my calcium (it is sitting at 13 but has gone down from 21 in 3 days. On the bright side, I think I almost have my cal, mag, dKH fully balanced in the first time in 8 years. Mind you, I never had SPS and never really cared. I will be going to JL this weekend to dump my tang, pick up some landscaping putty and a few other things. As soon as i see some real results, I will get ahold of a digi camera and take some snaps Cheers Last edited by ReefOcean; 09-01-2010 at 09:17 PM. |
