please show me your t5 only sps tanks

FTS-12-1-07-2.jpg


This is my 120. I started it 1.5 years ago, and almost everything you see in there was a frag when I got it...even the orange cap in the center. I have an 8 bulb Tek, with the following combination: 2 Fiji Purples, 4 ATI BluePlus, 2 UVL Super Actinics. I don't use ANY additives, I don't feed my corals specifically...they get whatever the fish make for them. I use a calcium reactor and a kalkwasser topoff, and change the water, if I remember to, once a month, about 30 gallons.
Not a great picture, as the color in person is TONS better than what I can get camera to capture, as I used an OLD point and shoot, and I really have no background in photography.
 
What is the SPS at the top-right on the acrylic?

Wow great looking tanks.............please raise your hand if you use Photoshop :)

Michael


you talking about my pictures ? I use photoshop on a daily basis for work, not that much on those pictures though,..really its the camera (mostly the lens) that makes the biggest difference,..
 
2 Quick Question, How many of you are running a chiller on your T-5 tanks? Also how do you have them oriented horizontal or vertical to the tank?
 
<a What is the SPS at the top-right on the acrylic?


The branch that is glued to the overflow box? It's some kind of acropora prostrata I think, but, I cannot be sure. OR, do you mean one of the other corals?

AWESOME... what bulbs are you using?

Two KZ FijiPurples, Two UVL Superactinics, 4 ATI BluePlus (all 54W).
 
Thanks... where did you find the KZ bulbs... I am having a hard time...what other bulb is similar to the KZ figiPurple?
 
Zeovitusa.com is where I got mine...be prepared to pay through the nose for them though...they run about $10 more than all the other manufacturers' bulbs....oh, yeah, did I mention they also charge you $25 to ship them too (for 2 bulbs!). AquariumSpecialty.com carries them now too, for the same price, but their shipping is half of what zeovitusa charges.
