Very few right now. Hopefully, more arriving within the next couple weeks. Any particular kind, color, size you are looking for?

I ended up going out to the store that night before you reasoned, I needed a bucket of salt any ways.

I bought a ORA T. Derasa you guys had in the tank by the cash register. I'll post a pic of it later.

After looking at ORA's site I would be interested in T. Maxima First or Ultra grade. I also like T. Crocea Gold and Ultra grades.

I bought the Derasa because I had read that they don't need as much light as the others I listed above. I have Outer Orbit 48" (2 x 150 HQI XM 10K and 2 x 130W Dual Actinic 460/420nm) over a 90 gallon tank. I would like to reserve the top portion of my tank for SPS. I also have 2 Tunze 6000's on a controller for flow.

Would you place Maxima's or Crocea's in the middle to bottom of a tank with the lighting and flow as described?

I would give the Maximas and Croceas as much light as possible in your situation. If the top is not an option then the middle or bottom directly under the MH should be fine.

Bluspot Gigas, very small Maxima's and Derasa's. The Gigas' are starting to look really good after being here 2 plus weeks but overall a disappointing selection so far. I am working on it, though.

Range in size from 4-7 inches. We stock Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizers. Prices and specs are listed on our website. We do not stock all models but most. We can order any we do not have.

This answered my question in another thread. But I still must ask any pics?
