lastlight's 97 (lights out)

Updated shot of the stairs with my freaking massive pfo dual hqi. I can hang off the 2x4 shelf I made which is good because the thing weighs a TON.



New FTS. This canopy is only 8" high compared to the old one which was around 11" high I think. It perfectly fits both reflectors.



It's strange I always thought the tank looked...sharper with only the T5s on. Now I'm thinking it was because of the falloff from the centered 250w. With 2x250w now the tank looks so much sharper and contrasty I love it.

Plus you get the shimmer with the MH's. Gotta have the shimmer!

Shimmer is so balls.

Please note the growing army of purple spots on my back wall. About time boys where the heck WERE you? Now I gotta scrape the back lol.

I'm seeing polyps open all over where I didn't before. The sides of those corals were either too dim for me to see or they just weren't out. Saweeeet. Fans haven't even kicked on with the extra halide on yet. Gotta love crappy old condos and all the cold 'AC' leaking in on days like this haha.

pretty sure "contrasty" isn't a word.

[lorenz0]

Which MH ballast is that?

[lastlight]

it's a pfo dual hqi. Not sure of the model number but she's ALL M80 and sexy big to boot.

Your lack of clams disturbs me.

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of ... moar clams.
