Lunch,
Don't know how he does get the European equipment. He must have a lot of ties in the industry.
TLC, I don't have the details on the UFO lighting other than I know that it is not sold in the US.
Just for the record he has 7 250 watt double ended HQIs on 2 fixtures with supplemental atinics integrated into the fixtures along with 2 1000w 20K radium fixtures in the middle. The color mixture is perfect.

The colors are absolutely amazing. You wouldn't even think that his tank looked that great. His site doesn't not do the tank justice. Tubs also has a great tank!!! and his site is one of the best on the web. Hey! I've got it! Tubs go to Wang's (with the 995 of course), take a bunch of pics and redesign Wang's site. His tank is amazing!!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Wayne spoke at last month's SEABAY meeting, and I think he said that he purchased the UFO lights in Germany while he was traveling. Gorgeous tank, but his monthly electric bill is almost $1 per gallon.

Nardis,
Definately I'd like to come back over there with my own camera and as I was leaving I had asked if he'd like to be featured on SEABay which hopefully will segway into another visit. I'd like to give his tank though another year to stabilize and mature a little more.
BCReefer,
Sorry don't have any details on the gigas but I'm sure someone else. I wonder if it fit through the openings on the older tank when he had to move the darn thing.

I really like the UFOs because they use T8 atinics running the length of the fixtures rather than just 2 PCs in the middle. The atinics are also on the winged ends of which the angles can be adjusted.
LOL Anthony. I have about 400 plus of water so that tells ya my bill :eek1: . That's a pretty good measure I guess of running an SPS tank in Cali.
I'm still amazed with the protein skimmer. The darn thing had wipers in the skimmer column. Flip a switch and all that gooey gunk is wiped off. Flip another switch and the collection cup is washed by 4 spray nozzels. You don't have to open the skimmer up at anytime for routine maintenance. That is a big plus - tThe engineering is wonderful. Hopefully the US manufacturers are willing to open up and come up with creative solutions like that.

Correction
the lighting wayne uses is 4 250 DE 10k(front), 2 1000 20k radiums (middle) and 3 400 10k(back).
sorry john, just had to correct u on that
Waynes tank is one to be seen and the pictures dont do it justice.

I can't seem to get any of the slideshows to work on his site. Anyone else having this problem?
It says I need Realplayer5, which I don't want to get because it's only a 14 day trial before they start charging me--too much hassle. I download the slideshow and try to play it, but my MusicMatch jukebox pops up. What's the deal?

Their premium player" comes with a 14 day trial. Ignore it and install the "basic player". No fees, not much of a hastle.

Hey John or Alex,
I notice that Wayne has two Tunze external (2002 & 2004 I think) pumps for circulation. Do you know if he's running them without the intake screens or if he shortened the intake screens? I run those pumps and I hate the long intake screens that I don't see in that shot! Thanks.
