pearsont74 · 04-07-2006, 02:05 PM

OK....I will soon be adding my 2nd pair of VHO as soon as i rebuild my hood. That will give me 4 110 watt VHO bulbs...

heres my wish list i will look to get after thats done.

- BTA (for my clowns)
- FoxFace (keep hearing they are great to help with the cleanup crew)
- Bluehead Wrasse (not sure about this guy?? please give feedback on this)
- Pajama Cardinal
- Flame Angel (still not sure cause i know they arent really reef safe)
clean up crew....always adding to this crew....snails...hemits....want to get a sally lightfoot or 2
thats its for now

Might help if we knew what you have. Fish only? Reef? Size tank? I ususally look at the profile to try to see. Nothing there either.

Blue head wrasse. That's not one of those shrimp muchers is it? I dunno, but it sounds familiar.

Yes they are shrimp munchers and very territorial.

Where do you create your profile at? I can't seem to find it

Tank size will definitely play a part in keeping that BTA. You don't have MH? I have never used a VHO but I would be leery keeping an anemone. This tank has not been set up yet? I would wait a good, long while to add a BTA in any case.

my signator doenst seem to be working
ok...
i have a 90 gal...it has been set up quite awhile and yes VHO will keep sea anemones
i have done alot of reseach on this subject and have had alot of feedback. MD are great....but unles you have a tank 24 or more deep then VHOs will provide suffient lighting.
4 110 watt bulbs....on a 90 gal...do the math, thats 4.8 watts per gal
i have weighted the pros and cons on MD vs PC or VHO (not goin to change the subject here) back to my wish list

i currently have a mating pair of clown (true pec)
and 2 blue devil damsels
lawnmower blenny
a few blue leg hermits
orange lik starfish
brown/green eye zoos
about 150 lb of LR
