Hello there ladies and gents,
This is Mike Kealey...Minh's buddy from Manchester. I haven't posted anything yet because I've been a little busy making sure this @#^@$%^ thing doesn't go trough the floor! That may sound like a joke...but....
It was really great to meet everybody at the meeting in the Paragon Aquatics shop. All of the advise was just super and has proven to be invaluable to us as we set up our first (but not last?) reef tank. I'm psyched about the forum and about the possibility of a new site. I'll try to do my part by contributing. Unfortunately I'm still in the learning stages. Maybe someday soon my year of invertebrate zoology class will pay off. I was really digging Peege's description of splitting the anemones. That's pretty cool I have to say.
I've got some questions about the lighting and ballasts in general. I'll try to post those questions in the best spot. Any input about Metal Halides (like figuring out what the wattage is on these used bulbs when there is absolutely nothing printed on either the bulb or the base!!!....argh! Or an explanation of why my dedicated, 20 amp circuit keeps blowing every time we plug the darn things in) ...would be greatly appreciated.
later,
Mike
