    I know someone who recently ordered new frags but doesn't know how to take top down shots yet so I was obliged to take a few for them.  Trust me, if these were mine, I would be happy to admit it!  Enjoy...

    Sone,thanks for sharing your great pictures of some incredible coral!! I finally bought the AI Sol Blues to replace my 400w halides. Now I see you sold yours. What did you replace them with?? Any recommendations on setting them up would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Rob Bierma 333-0329

    Hey Andy, it's the Sexy Coral's Flash Bomb chalice.  For the price, you might have to forego a mod on your Bimmer. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/wink.gif  Decisions decisions...

    Hey Rob, I sold the silver modules for black ones.  I am now using a combination of Sol Blues and 400W XM 20Ks.  Since your tank is really tall, I don't know how much you will have to adjust for the AIs in comparison to the 400W halides you are running.  If anything, start off by keeping the blues around 50% and the white around 75% of the blues so that would be roughly 40%.  I think the whites are more intense so I would stay lower on it.  Then just watch your corals over the next couple of weeks to see how they respond to it and adjust up or down from there.  Good luck!
