OK Dave, we have been working steadily every day for the last month. with all the primary elements in place on the equipment sled our focus has been refining, improving equipment and processes that experience suggests a better way. One major decision Mr. Wilson and I have agreed on is to add 36X2 feet (eighteen feet on either side of the MH's) of LED's to our Aqua Medic MH/T5 lights. We believe the Metal Halides are still necessary to accomplish a best practice with respect to lighting on just about every level. Esthetically, you can't beat the results with the LED,MH,T5 mix. You can achieve optimal results without diluting the quality of light necessary for the health and welfare of your coral inhabitants. The combination also drops the amount of time the MH must stay on for a more efficient cost curve. We are expecting the lights to arrive in the next two weeks so stay tuned. We have been out scouring the LFS's for fish and corals and I will be doing an extensive photo update soon. Our next priorities are to bring the Profilux on line............install the new LED's over the display tank and install the hospital tank in the fish room. Those would be the top three priorities out of about twenty in the hopper.
