Very nice!

i don't know if its just me or its the pictures but the lighting makes things look greenish. either way how is the lighting holding up, are the bulbs that came with the fixture worth keeping or are you feelign a replacement?

anyone ever notice how angry and aggressive lookign the royal grammas look, but yet they are a pretty peaceful nice looking little fishy?

 

[carey]

Actually i'm not happy with the 10k whites, as soon as i sell my 55g setup I'll replace them with some aquablue specials. The rock is green though, its the new base rock so its getting covered in algae.

 

[Gti_Leo]

oh do you have any coralline encrusted pieces that you can scrape and float it around the aquarium?

what brand of lamps are in there currently? i assume you have 6 10000k and 6 actinic, correct?

 

[carey]

They are current brand lamps. And yep, 6 and 6. I have a ton of pruple in there, it had just started taking over the back glass in the 55g so I assume it will be a few more weeks until you can see it again. Mostly I have a red hard algae that everyone says is coralline, I have more of that than anything else really.

 

[Gti_Leo]

hmm the current USA brand of bulbs generally aren't that great, maybe thats part of the reason you don't like them

i want that goby

 

[Joyler]

I think your pics are fantastic!!

Royal Gramma looks angry, lol. But yea, I guess those 10000k current brands have a lot of greens/yellows in em. My tank just has 50/50 PC bulbs and a 50/50 12 watt strip and it's noticeably bluer. Corals seem happy though. Looks like I'll avoid current brand in the future :d. Those lights seem bright but they make the algae fluoresce lol.

 

[carey]

Thanks guys. Thats a pink spotted watchman goby, quite large too.

I will be getting new lamps one of these days, hopefully sooner rather than later. Just depends on when I sell the 55g. Or if i have enough credit left on a charge card. !!ROFL
