Extremely nice tank! I see that you are running both T-5's and MH's. Why?
Is anyone out there running a combo?
Like MH and VHO's?
MH and PC's?

Currently I am running MH's and Super brights actinics. Bu due to size and reflectors I have what I feel are sort of dead spots. I would like to some how fill in those spots.

Thanks. I run the combo because i like the reflection and realistic points of MH but 150watt MH bulbs IMO have crappy color compared to say, 400watt 20K radiums. So thats where the T-5s come in, i run 4 actinic bulbs of blues and purples. Plus the t-5s give my tank a nice morning and evening effect without the MH running.

Maybe add more actinic?
I think when i plan my next setup i will go with a 400wattMH/T5VHO mixture
 
People still use Halides? wow..

Ha ha. My frag tank is being upgraded in size and my MH fixture on the current frag tank is being replaced with an ATI T5 Sunpower. :D In a week ALL of my tanks will officially be 100% T5. After using T5's for almost two years on my main setup I just cant see myself going back to MH.

Great shots and corals DBarsotti. Welcome to R2R! 1smile1

Thanks!
