Awesome pics as per usual! Do you shoot with all of your bulbs on or just blues? The colors of your acros are so intense its crazy. Reason I ask is the sandbed appears quite dark/dull in your photos or is this because you shoot underexposed?

Thanks Stones!!!! as per the last set of photos your correct in both points, all of them were taken with actinic bulbs only as well as shoot under exposed. Most of the time I just use the MH when doing a photo shoot.

Wow those pics are stellar as usually.

Hey, I just read your specs again and noticed that you were running NP bio pellets with GFO. Are you still doing that? Reason I ask is because the manufacturer doesn't recommend that but I do it . I've found that the pellets alone only drop phosphates so low and not much lower , for me anyway. With just pellets phos sits around .1, with GFO it drops to pretty much zero.

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated this, so I figure take a few shots of the system before a start changing some stuff. As you can see in the progress shot above I haven’t been having that much luck with the system. Over the last 4 weeks I’ve decided to change over from MH to a full T5 Lighting as a result I’ve had a few casualties some small frag , and some colonies as seen in the above picture, I’ve also lost significant amount of colors. Am hoping that over the next few months the system will recover in its glory days!
