  1. 127,000 views on the 150g Marineland DD. How about that. I wonder where that ranks overall in the dedicated tank forum or on the boards in total!
  2. I used to have 2 radions over a 150g 3x3 tank with SPS. 1 400w MH dominated them in both color (20k bulb) and growth rate. radions produced less heat, used less electric, and had fancy setting ability, but the 400w MH and annual bulb cost was cheap compared to the cost of 2 new radions. I think if I were to go non-sps, i would be fine with LEDs like the radions, but having had radions and a 400w MH over SPS and seeing the vast (not even close) growth rate difference, MH all the way.
  3. Tom, just saw this. I hope your recovery is going well and as pain free as possible. Best wishes. -Ryan
  4. Aw. I miss you man. We'll see. This one might sit in storage for a bit until I can get up the finances to set it up. It's a big one...
  5. Thanks guys. On hold at the moment. He can't decide if he's going to sell or not.
  6. I might be getting a new tank and need to transport it from Gainesville to Ashburn. Before I rent a truck from u-haul, I thought I'd see if anyone here had a truck and wanted to make some cash first. Thanks, Ryan
  7. 6500k light bulb worked great for me.

  10. Are you suggesting that - if I have a perfectly QTed, healthy, and parasite-free Powder Blue Tang -- And I put him into my 40g breeder... and he is happy for 1 year... and I then stress the crap out of him... move him from tank to tank... strobe lights on the tank... and Justin Beiber playing 24/7... there is no chance he'll get ich? I was under the belief that it would develop under those circumstances. No?
  11. I've decided to take down this tank. Haven't been able to conquer a cyano outbreak that's been going on for several months now. Tried the chemical method, which has worked for me before, tried less food, tried lights out, tried more flow and less flow, tested my water, no clue the cause. I'm also not as into the tank with just PC lighting and zoanthids more of less, and a couple of tiny fish. Coming from the 150g, this tank has never felt that fulfilling for me, and my son really isn't in to it like I had imagined. Maybe if it was a SPS tank, I would have more interest, or if it was bigger. My son does love Ken's aquarium still though! I'll just take the proceeds from the tank sell-off and put it into my 300g DD savings fund. I'll have a tank for sale thread in the WTS forum sometime in the next few days. I'll start with livestock, then equipment, then the tank/hood/stand last.
