so here goes,
20 G cube connected to my 150 G system placed unde the stand and lit by 150 W 10K MH and 2 14K T8 and 1 actinic T8. The actinics will be changed all for fluorescent T8 or T5 soon for better coloration.
Lighting is very close to the tank which had to be lifted to gravity drain in my sump. so light acclimation is very tough, grouwth I'm getting is very fast but I always need to color up the frags before they are picked up...

one of 3 remaining tiny frags of ORA Green slimer for some reason it didn't do well in my tank and after multiple fragging to save it I was left with 3 small frags. they are doing very well in my frag tank for some reason. could be the much more intense lighting or the smoother flow

frag of a very thick green accro fast grower and nice thick PE

some pics of my frag tank. 20 G cube in stand connected to tank. lit by 1 150 W 10 K MH and supplemented by 1 Actinic T8 and 2 14 K T8. will reolace the 14 K t8 by actinic T8 or T5 if I can find smaller ones for some more blue.
growth in frag tank is crazy and so is PE much better than in the tank maye because of the intense lighting or smooth flow or maybe lack of fish to nip...
