Wow, sounds really great. I look forward to see some pictures of your tank when ready. my best regards. Luca

have someone used this lamp for a certain period of time? impression? limits or drawbacks on SPS? thanks for sharing.

Hi Vio, that's a good price. It means you went back to MH?

the ballast powers up regularly the lamp. I have anyway the impression that the light is less brilliant and eventually the spectrum has changed. so I start speculating that eventually the ballast has changed its output. by the way this is the ballast and is 6 years old now

I'm using 2x400 MH driven by two Icecap ballasts. since some months I've noticed a relevant decline on light brightness despite I've recently changed (twice ) the lamps. Could it be that ballasts are getting older and decreasing their efficiency? has somebody an idea how long is the average...

Is somebody using this light? http://sanxinbao.en.alibaba.com/product/679660118-214303243/EVERGROW_Profseeional_IT2080_240w_remote_control_led_fish_tank_lighting.html I'm considering to replace my 2x400 MH with 4 of them but I've heard many contradictory opinions on replacing MH with Led.

Situation improved very much during the past two days. As you mentioned, he has now seen the other eating Nori and strted as well. I have good hopes he will survive. let's see...

this is what I would expect but surprisingly he doesn't pick up at Nori. I believe because it is a new taste and shape he is not yet used to. currently is just eating Artemia but he cannot thrive just with them. I'm looking for something similar he had in nature, just to overcome the inital...

I've just bought a pretty small Achilles and apparently he is not interested in nothing rather than frozen Artemia salina do you have any experience/suggestion on what else should I try?

who knows this moray? I'm wondering if someone knows exactely this specie, feeding habits, behaviour etc. thanks for you help:knockedou

Geraud, I'm probably responsible for his desease. I gave him 3 shrimps and he has eaten them all . after three days, his stomach genereted the air bubble . by the way, since I open this post I gave him couple of small feeding fishes and a shrimp and he his still alive but he cannot move...

ReefnQueens, I agree. It's something I've never tried to learn. happy to find great people that can do it for me:splitspin

what do you mean? why are we crazy?

well, if it is just a matter of a simple intervention, I would try. Like we currently do for human beings or ours dogs........

Thanks Tunicata, anyway yesterday, despite the bubble gas, he managed to eat a small feeding fish. Apparently he is healty and still strong but this gas bubble impedes him to move around in a normal way. My question is: cannot this gas be reabsorbed by the tissues? I would expect so! Or...
