jlsardina you mail box is full didn't know how else to tell you.

www.sizes.com/units/color_temperature.htm and after reading this sorry skylight is 20000 and after refraction and the depth why would deep water corals be used to highest temperature. I believe that Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. So who says you didn't edit it. I have ppl...

Then what is Kelvin if not intensity. Color is wavelength. You proved that for me as you showed me a link to green 30000k headlights then a YouTube video of blue 30000k headlights the only 2 things they had in common is they were the same temperature and high intensity.

So what ur saying is light intensity has nothing to do with is. So I can put a 40 watt cfl above my tank and my coral will grow just fine. Good to know I can get buy way cheaper on my lighting costs. Thanks for the advice.

I never that will help him grow stony coral I said I thought in my opinion it was a little low.

So anyway as you show a link to 30000k green hid lights then a link to a YouTube video of 30000k casting a blue glow you prove what?

Quit arguing on this thread I don't really give a rats *** what u think 30000k hid automotive lamps r blue because they use xenon gas. Metal halide can be the same temperature as a high pressure sodium and they r 2 different colors because of the gas. color itself is not dependent on whether its...

Yeah I just enjoy talking lights.

400nm is in the UV spectrum it is at the very tippy top LOL.

The violet? Ultra violet? Anything under 400nm is ultraviolet I like 400 it is also the same wavelength as moonlight I guess. Ultraviolet I don't believe to have too much to do with growth but I do like the glow it gives the tank. I think t5 aticnic are 480nm I think I am way off there Idk. I...

Assortment of snail shells looking for about 30 plus. I have found them online for cheap, but everyone is out of large and I would like medium and large.

In my research and stating its my opinion red leds have very little value for most coral but usually do promote algae growth. But, that seems to be contradictory in your tank also. Too, bright of lights can sunburn coral best to acclimate them to your lighting on dim and turn up slowly but, you...

Sorry if I was getting technical but RO water isn't as pure as distilled so wasn't sure if it made a difference.

That's kinda what I was thinking I was just going to use RO water would this make any difference

I just realized its limpets not limpids lol. Just googled it a bunch and they eat sps coral
