Are you all seeing good growth from the SPS?

I run 2 x 175W Iwasaki 15K's. I'll take some pics tomorrow. I really like these bulbs and would only change them if I got a bigger tank than my current 75G. The PAR rivals many 250W bulbs, anything stronger I'd probably bleach a lot of my SPS in my 20" tall tank.

Nice tanks everyone. MG are those what I have heard called "elephant ear" mushrooms in your tank?

I need to get an updated FTS although not much has changed since this was taken. I currenly have 1 175W Iwasaki 15K in a Lumenarc mini. I plan on adding a least 1 possibly two more. It's a 4ft 150g tank. It's obviously pretty new as I have a lot more room to add stuff. :)

easye123: Are you running any supplement actinic lighting with those 14k Iwasaki's in that pic? I see some nice color pop and heard you dont get much of that with just the 14k Iwasaki's alone.

Nice tanks everyone.
I really like the look of the 14k Hamilton's. If only they had good PAR :( .
