Congrats on the beautiful tank, nice job. I liked how you showed the growth sequences of some of the corals I think it was a good idea.

Congratulations!! A beautiful tank, very deserving of TOTM. :thumbsup:

I am considering T5s and doing away with the halides based on his success. I love this tank

 

[tampa-reefer]

Ive got t5's...yay! Gives me more moral support.

 

[rjwilson37]

That is some great color from your corals.. A definate top notch TOTM.

I use the T5's as well and tell other's to aim towards the ATI 11k and Blue pluses. My colors have come along way with the T5's compared to PC's and I don't have any problems with heat, which is wonderful in such a small system.

 

[Flipturn88]

Simply stunning! The corals have amazing colors. A well-deserving TOTM indeed.

 

[Mr. Eko]

AMAZING!! Its great to see what you can really do with T5's.
Again, great job and keep up the great work=-)

 

[danano]

Thanks Skip et al! Glad y'all like it!

The T5s have worked really well for me. Colours are somewhat more pastel. Main differences I see compared to MH tanks are less intense purples although I really like how the purple humilis turned out - which has almost doubled in size in the past year.

I am not getting much growth from my Acro's under T5's, but I think it is more of a flow problem. I am only pushing 17 times through my system, compared to other's doing SPS that push 25 or more times through there system. What are you thoughts on getting more growth from SPS, especially Acro's with more flow.

Amazing tank, congrats on ToTM

 

[FastUno]

Speechless!
I also have T5's, thanks for the inspiration.
What are you're thoughts on the Tek T5's reflectors & fixtures? Do you feel you would have gotten the same/similar results had you used Tek T5's?
