Just a quick question...
Can somebody please explain what colour temperature I will need for my halide bulbs 10,000k, 14,000k or 20,000k :huh:
Cheers

Just thought i'd share these videos, I thought they were quite interesting...
2 short videos regarding frag farming, look out for the moving lights :good:

Loads of great videos too...
Ive had a look on the AC and Ebay, the cheapest twin 250W I can find so far is £100.
Do you know if I'll need a supplement atinic with these Halides or are they good enough by themselves?
I quite like that blue glow that most marine tanks have, am i able to acheive this with cheapo LED's off...
Dont quite know yet, but it's no good just catering for corals that require minimal lighting, because no doubt i will want something better further down the line

My next problem is lighting!
This is going to be a reef tank, but I don't quite know what lighting to get? :rolleyes:
Anybody got any suggestions? I want to buy the lights secondhand possibly (reefing on a shoestring)
They need to be good on the corals and good on the old electric bill...
Well toughened glass is 5x stronger than float glass so that just means i can be 5x as rough with the panels :lol:
I do understand what your saying about float glass just cracking ect, but if it's gonna go its gonna go?
You'r more likely to injure yourself with float because you are dealing...
two 40mm outlets(as per ski's advice) and two 25mm inlets
Please dont say i've done something wrong because theyve drilled the holes now :lol:
Cheers

Yeah i can do that, i'm thinking of moving the to the middle of the tank also, so ill have two large 50mm holes then two smaller 30mm holes next to that. In this formation ---> o 0 0 o
Also getting the front viewing panel in Optiwhite glass, which doesnt have the green tint that all standard...
