moving up to a 450...

I am having a hard time deciding on which lighting plan to go with. I would love some input from you fellow reefers with large tanks. The tanks footprint is 96"L x 36"W @ 30"Tall. Gonna be keeping clams on the bed, sps, anemonies, lps, rics, and zoo's.

1. 4- 250wt xm's in luminarc 3's with 2 72"actinic VHO bulbs running 1 front of the L3's, 1 in back.

2. 3- 250 wt xm's in L3 with some sort of T5 configuration (6500k,10000k, and actininc)

3. keep the 400 watt ushio's, install them in the L3's and some configuration of T5's.

4. Some configuration of all T5's, I could either go with 36" bulbs perpendicular, or 48" bulbs parallel.

:confused: :confused: :confused: :mad:

How long is that run of pipe ?

Both the drain and return is approx 25'. There is a slight pitch on the drain, but not much due to the tanks height and the sumps height.

Clownfish caught in the act.... spawning

Well it's been a long while since I have added anything to this thread. Things have been going great. We are adding fish and frags/small colonies almost every week. I though this was 2 cool not to share. Here is a link on youtube that I just posted of our 2 clownfish spawning near their host RBTA. Enjoy!
