A small intro about myself , i've been reef keeping since 1997 . It's been a month now since I emptied the tank to start over again . I had a mixed reef Berlin style system and miracle mud . Everything was running great until about seven years ago where I had a bubble algae outbreak . Tried everything could not get rid of it . I lost everything and at the end when the lights were off in the system was running for about six months that's when the Bubble algae died off . Looking to start over again but maybe with LEDs this time because of high heat from metal halide and expensive electrical bills from 1/4 hp chiller . Here are a few pictures of what it used to be .
 
Welcome to R2R, Good to see you back. I have had other lighting system in the past, and like my LED's. Is the growth explosive? Yes. The growth has been great, my current system has not had the ups and down with heat, not chiller, I have 10.75 year til my next expected bulb change:) I have had my LED up for 11 months

Yes I am leaning towards the LEDs, thanks for sharing

I also like the moon light effect, I run my blue from 9 to 9 at 1%. No missing the action 24/7. That was on thing I could not do with my old lighting;)
