cl2ysta1, wow that is a big Frogspawn. How long have you had it and how many heads did it have when you received it?

we purchased it off of a tank teardown here. The guy had over 400 heads of frogspawn that grew from 4 origional heads in 3 years! No calcium reactor or anything. Religious 10% water changes weekly. I got them back in december, and since I would say I have added about 20 heads to the colony from heads splitting. Really healthy stuff

Here's a pic of my LumenBrights running on IceCap 250 watt electronic ballasts:

My tank is 72L x 24W x 29H but I have 5 inches of sand. The LB minis are perfect. Here is a link to my tank build thread. It's got a lot of pics so it will give you some ideas:

LumenBrights Over My 180
LumenBrights Over My 180
Let me start off by saying that Mike at Reef Specialty has set the new bar for customer service in this hobby. Thanks Mike!
So here are a couple of teaser shots of my reef with 3 finished mini LumenBrights and 250w CoralVue ballasts firing 12K Reeflux bulbs. The bulbs are 14" off the water. I was surprised at how little light spill-over there was. The reflectors are mounted to my old AquaSpacelight that I gutted. The fixtures slide in the channels that the glass used to be in, making adjustments laterally very easy. Height adjustments couldn't be easier using the original cable adjustment anchors of the AquaSpacelight.
I'm not quite used to the look of the fixture yet, but it's growing on me. Kind of resembles something you would see at the tail end of the Space Shuttle and not above my reef! The light this combination of reflector, bulb and ballast produces is simply amazing. The intensity and color are perfect IMO. And better yet...less wattage than all the T5's I was using!
