What light are you using on that? And also if you dont mind how much did you pay for that cube, that thing is awsome!

I almost bought that last night .....lol

:lol:

Salty got a MASSIVE shipment in last night, and we stood and waited while they unloaded all the clams. I still liked this one the most, because I already had two Croceas.

Tswifty8, Where did you get your clams? i have been looking for a place to get some nice ones like yours.

I got the Derasa from Salty Critter.

The others are from Elmer's Aquarium in Monroeville, PA. My g/f is from Pittsburgh, and usually stops by to check out what they have before she comes out here. She found both the Crocea's there.

I'm using a 250 watt PFO Mini-Pendant with an Aqualine AB 10,000K DE bulb.

Thanks I'm really happy with it. Keith (DEERE G) did an amazing job building it.

Picked up a new bulb yesterday...

Aqualine AB 10k

Aqualine AB 20k

 

[Tswifty]

New Coral... ORA Joe the Coral.

Tried take a little of the blue out. The 20k bulb makes it a little more difficult to get good picture representations of the corals.

 

[DiscoReefRover]

So what you think of that ab 20 bulb

 

[Tswifty]

It's gonna take some getting used to. It really pops all the corals colors though. Especially all the ORA multicolored stuff, but I think I liked the clams better under the 10k.

Honestly it's pretty close to the colors I was getting under my T5's, except without the overpowering blue tint to everything.

I shattered the 10k bulb pulling it out though, so it's 20k or nothing now. :lol:

 

[DiscoReefRover]

those de 250 watters can be a real mother to get out sometimes

looks good though!!

 

[Tswifty]

Thanks... I gave up for tonight. I took about 25 shots of the tank, and didn't like any of them. :rolleye1:

I need to pick up some sort of scraper tomorrow though, I have coraline starting to grow like crazy, and the sponge wont get it.

 

[DiscoReefRover]

credit card !!!! works great just be cautious what i used to use

 

[Tswifty]

Yeah and the water might be able to cool it down from all the swiping it got the other day. :lol:

I might go pick up a kent marine scraper or something... Marc said he knew of some scraper, but I never asked him the brand or where I could find it.

 

[Tswifty]

 

[itZme]

Closer to real colors without all the blue?

 

[Tswifty]

Yeah that's a little better.

I'm having a heck of a time with the P&S and the 20k bulbs.

[Jeff Trout]

[Tswifty]

Thanks Jeff

Hey Sean... I definitely see the baby blue polyps that the purple montipora is popping out now with the 20k light! :eek2:

It's a really nice contrast, especially next to the white bleach spot left from the kalk bomb. :lol:
