What percentage do you run your T-5's at? 100%? Also do you run LED?

@s2nhle - they are not connected - it's just a "glass" holder made from acrylic that prevents bending of the lamp bottom "glass".

btw- they are not dimmable so they run at 100%. No leds at all -pure T5's

Wow! Where are you located? Amazing progress for being just 8 months old!

I live in Poland, Europe. Quite far from the US

Please keep in mind that it was an upgrade by moving most of the corals from old to new tank so some of this corals are in my tanks for a few years now.
