Beautiful. Just beautiful. Keep up the good work man. You've got a beautiful system here. :thumbsup:

Forgot to ask you: what T5 combo are you currently using?

Your comment re: MH vs T5 suggests that perhaps in hindsight you were better off with MH's? Is the issue paleness? Are you still running any form of carbon dosing like pellets?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer my questions.

Nice

Thanks for the kind words peeps!

sahin, actually, it's better color and better/faster growth at least from my point of view, and this is only true with a few acros. Maybe your right I might have been off with MH, but I think this hobby evolves and am just going with the flow..... As per carbon dosing, am back to dosing vodka.

Thanks for the kind words Mike!

Currently the bulb combo is as follows;
ATI Blue Plus
Giesemann Pure Actinic
KZ 14K New Generation
ATI Blue Plus
Giesemann Pure Actinic
ATI Blue Plus

although I love the look of the tank with the pure actinic during dawn/dusk I feed that changing this to Blue Plus will give me a little better growth and maybe even improve the colours a little bit.

Here are a few photos that I tool while I was in the middle of doing water change. All the photos were taken with actinic lights only. I would typically not post some of this photos as they are not sharp, but I thought I would share them anyways as the colors are pretty good I think"¦

Maybe but you might loose the creamy base colour in pic 1

Mike, are you saying this because I might have to much blue bulb or just brighter system?

 

[M007]

I'm thinking the creamy base in pic 1 will turn blue and reds will get darker. Your latest pics show great contrasting colours both in branch base colour and polyp. JMHO tho, your call :thumbsup:
