just MH, I use a 20k so no need for actinic, but if you're crafty I think you can retrofit 24" T5 in there, I was thinking of doing it

sure will, as soon as I have time lol, school been hectic.
My plan to do this is to remove one of the ballast in my T5 fixture that support 2 light. put it in the MH since I believe there's room in there. I just gotta worry bout heat... since both end have no opening.. I'll probably be drilling slits into both end and have a fan aiming at it. I wanted moonlight but not sure how to do it >< Anyways got new fishes and corals! will post up whenever I have time |

Here's a link to a place you can buy them. If you search google you can find a few people that have used them in there aquariums for "moonlight". I think they look nice, I'm planning on doing a setup with them once I upgrade my lights to LED in a few weeks.

!!! I discovered there's an area in my tank that I have Halimeda over, there's very little flow through there, upon closer look there appear to be larvae swimming around (not mysid). I feed the tank live phytoplankton every other day or so now.. hopefully it will stay alive! Could be Pom Pom crab larvae... Cerith snail larvae.. nassarius... or my neon goby larvae!

Hey kyle, sorry man that clam is my favorite! although the bastard have a bad habit of not staying on the rock and keep jumping down to the sand and moving.
I've been trying to find a Miami Hurricane but looks like no one got a frag for sale in the valley atm |
