Tank Entry

Hi Addicts,
I am starting this to talk about my going green stage. I have spent the last 2 years fixing my house with energy saving products. New doors, AC, windows....you get the drift.

For perspective purposes I'm standing in the doorway, at my right is the utility sink, and to the left is the back of the tank.


Temporary home of the RO/DI. Eventually all ...

After several attempts at new lighting, I think I have settled on something that will work for me. I have been running 150w Phoneix DE for about a year now, and have decided since I have eneded up primarily SPS, that I would move up to 250w Radium halides. At first I tried LumenArc reflectors, which blocked too much airflow in my canopy, they were too large in there as well, forcing me to take out my VHO's that did sunrise/sunset. For my 18" depth, they were heating up the water in my short ...
