Not going to the Sac area anytime soon.

But I think I will try and make it over to The Deep my next trip through Redding. I still haven't been there since the name change.

120 miles from here (I am outside fort jones, but it's close enough).

Hadn't planned on making it. I have been WAY too busy lately to think straight, let...

True, but I don't really need all that many right now.
I want to make SURE everything is stable for a while to come before I dump a bunch more life into the tank.
And it's only a 35 gallon cube, so...

Yes, I like the setup. It was well made, and it even tempts me to put stock ballasts back in for the T5s.

I know most people change the bulb out, but this thing is NEW, and I don't feel like...

The stock 10K bulb could use more actinic, that's for sure.
But I don't want to give up the PAR of the 10k to get the color of a 20K bulb (I LOVE the look of 20K bulbs though).

I also run this...

Upgrading 24" Outer Orbit 105w HWI/T5 setup

Ok, I can NEVER leave anything alone.
I REALLY like this pendant. It offers a lot right out of the box, but also allows room to mod stuff.

First two mods planned.
New fan.
Icecap 660 to run the...

Great sealer, Greensarco!!!

After getting an Outer Orbit 24" pendant from Greensarco the other day, I looked in the package.

And when Greensarco said the pendant was NEW, he wasn't kidding around! Bulbs might have 1/2 hour...

I always try and leave room for improvement.

Good idea. I bet that this ballast probably runs the bulbs closer to what they are designed for, rather then under driving them like most electronic ballasts will for HQI bulbs.

Yeah, I just hate to see it go to waste.

I can always just rinse it with freshwater and let it dry out. But like I said, such a waste.
