cant wait to see it with both bulbs going! we have to move the support for the left side over a few inches as it is over to far towards the side.

FYI, I got mine from Premium Aquatics for $89 each last week if anyone else wants to order some. With shipping I paid $193.

these are the larges which are $99, my total was i think $213 shipped two larges and a 8lb container or ARM reactor media. I'm sure they will all price match though.

Yep, Premium Aquatics and Phishy both have them at a good price. Phishy is local, and Premium is only 1 day shipping. Both have been very good to the club over the years, and deserve the business. You can always search and find a website with a little cheaper price, or one that will price match, but its important to support the local businesses that support the club.

Nice Lumenarcs BTW.
