New Tank photos

I just figured I would show off some of my tank. Its not quite clear since I added rock last nite, and did some reefscaping, but its close enough, and I needed to try out my camera before I head out of town next week. By the way, Im enclosing 2 shots of some star polyps...at least I think thats what...

This post surely got off the topic :) But its great...and I appreciate all of the help. The guys at Progressive said I should put a fan in my sump and that would probably take care of it for good. I was worried about it since Im losing 2 gallons of water out of my tank and 20gal sump, but they said ...

Its on a 55gal Tub. 36x18x20.5 And as far as corals, I really only have some softies at the moment. I definately dont NEED that much light. And as far as a lower par bulb, its an xm 20k bulb. Im not sure what would be much lower par, but it sure is pretty. Im mostly bummed about the heat, but Im sti...

I went to Progressive Marine today...for the first time. (very nice stuff) I mentioned to them about me having the 400 watts over my tank and they said they didnt think it was too much. Could never be too much. :) I still wonder, but after talking to them, maybe Its not as bad. Im going to try a few...

After looking at that post, I wonder if Im just blasting my tank with 400 watts. It seems just by the looks of that post that 250 watts is probably pretty high for my tank, and hitting with 400, Im probably blinding everything. :)

Yea Ive thought about it, but I really love the Halide shimmer. What Ive also been thinking about is doing like 2 T5 lights, and keeping the halide. Then have the halides come on for like 3 hours and then off an hour, and then back on for 3 and so on. Kinda give it the shaded type thing and still gi...

Anyone looking to upgrade their lighting??

I have a dual 400 watt Halide setup that really is just too much for the tank I have. Im having fits trying to keep the temps down and I dont need that much light to begin with to be honest. Im hoping that maybe someone has a dual 250 setup they might be willing to trade. Mine has the ballast with t...
