I don't use one, but also have crazy sponge growth. I'm getting some detritus buildup, so I was thinking I might get one just to put on temporarily while I stir things up and blast the rock every...

Thanks Grim, I'll give the ATI Blue a try. I did notice that purples went royal blue and certain greens were great under the UVL, but others were not.

Honestly I think the t5s probably give more fluorescence than the PC, but not as much as the UVL VHO actinics I used to run. The t5s seem to be an odd spectrum, such that certain greens fluoresce...

hmm...I used to have VHOs and these don't live up to them, or royal blue LEDs for color. These remind me of the old PC actinics that werent very popular.

Best color from T5 actinic?

I just installed some UV Lighting super actinics and I'm not too impressed with the fluorescence from the corals. I'll keep these for their usable life, since they are mostly for aesthetics. Does...

Pairing up tailspot blennies?

Does anyone have experience with more than one tailspot blenny in a tank? I've seen several photos of wild tailspot blennies and they are frequently in pairs or small groups.

Also, does anyone...

Favorite digitata?

Though they're the weed of the SPS world, it seems like there's some nice morphs out there nowadays besides the orange/green/brown.

znut Reefer positive feedback

Purchased a few sps frags from znut reefer, all were good sized and reasonably priced, plus a freebie, and packed very well.

Great seller.

Thanks!
