I would give you a polythoa but they produce a toxin from what I read that could kill you... :-(

Don't know if I'm ready to try that yet lol. I read that tribes used to use the poison it produces on poison darts.

When I say I'm using PCs why tell me to trash them if I could afford leds I would have them lol. some people irritate the crap out of me.... sorry for the rant that's what I get for using another forum lol

Really, somebody told you not to use PCs? I used to grow masses of corals with them as well as with VHOs. Hell, I had a 10 gallon with nothing but 4 T8s that was overrun with soft corals! No kidding, I had to sell some every few months just to make room for new growth. That was using lights two generations before PCs came into the hobby! Wow, some people can be such snobs.

There are a few standard that actually matter when considering lighting. Cost, heat, power consumption, light quality, PAR and most importantly, results... and any hobbyist should understand that we have lots of options that meet those standards. After all, RESULTS are what we're actually after and you're definitely getting that.

Sorry for the counter rant. -_- lol

Are you kidding me?!!! Somebody needs to do some math to see how much each animal cost you including shipping. Those guys must be getting shipments by the truckload!
