[Rogger Castells]

I really would like to see those bulbs in person, let me know

 

[bckane]

well wired up the icecaps and getting ready to wire up the power cord and I think Im missing a cable.....its the connector with the 4 plug.......I have the power cord but its just bare wires

 

[bckane]

I maybe wrong I think this plug is for the dimmer.....do I hook the black white green wire to the bulb harness.?

Update I got it.....WOW these thing and BRIGHT....just the 4 B+ bulbs light up my whole house

Nice job!

sweet canopy brian. its going to be really nice working in your tankwith that design. and i told you i wasnt kidding. lol.

you may find you might like 3 aqua and 3blue+ better though, but it depends on your taste. I found my tank to be a little too blue for me with 4 and 2.

now heres a thread that will help you get some water in that tank quicker then planned

i switched to 4blue+ and 2 the other day brian, and i like this combo better. i wont get as good of growth, but its more toned down and not as bright. Im probably going to switch out 2 of my blue+ for Super actinics though.

im going to run

Front
UVL Super actinic
aquablue
blue+
Aquablue
Blue+
UVL super actinic.

have you read about the new super actinic? there suppost to be real similar to the VHO SA that everyone runs, even a little better
