[James404]

Here's the details on my lights: 3x400w radiums in lumenmax 2 reflectors, powered by lumatek dimmable ballasts.

This is gonna be fun

fRags i get start at the bottom at work up every other day to they are at the height of there new home

Looking forward to seeing what happens here. I'm rooting for the t5's. Lol. Are u all using comparable wattage for the LEDs?

 

[ecchybridLE]

Deff a good idea. Sounds like fun. Should be interesting to see what comes of it.

Niceeee I just realized it was 6 hours anyway...2:30 to 8:30 would not be 8 hours lol I'm terrible with even the most basic math...what a schmuck

*******************RULES*************
2-After a week of acclimating we will put the corals at the same height in each tank

the same height is not necessarily the same (or fair to the coral)...how high the lights are over the tank would affect results.
If the light is too intense, can the coral be lowered in the tank, rather than killing it?

 

[FaviaFreak]

this is not just about light it's also about skill, so I say any method to grow and color these frags up should be game on!

throw all the science and technical stuff out the window, I swear some people wouldn't know a good time if it hit them right in the face, this is gonna be a blast!!

 

[TheSherm]

What are the odds and whos taking action on this??!!!

Maybe i should have clarified.not from bottom to top but from light to coral

Ok this isn't going to prove nothing.
You need the same tank or tanks run on the same system dose the same things and with the same photo period. This is the only way you will see if growth and color is different.
Ow and the same frags

 

[duke62]

batt dont you read LOL

Cheers to that! :beer:

FWIW, I soon will have 3 different tanks/lighting running off of the same system!:fight2: 6X 39w T5 on 27G prop tank, 2X 250W Radiums on 180G, and AI Sol Blue on 30BR. Waiting on some T5 bulbs and an AI power supply, and I'll be rolling! :teeth:

batt dont you read LOL

Lol i skimmed throw it fast did i miss somthing ?
I see the same height tanks but are thay going to be on the same system .????? What the photo period going to be . we need more details.
