Just set up my prop tank
I have a 30 gal, that is fed by a mag 7, and I have some starboard about 8 - 10 inches from the top held up with some pvc, I also have a mj 1200 for flow. I am using a 36 inch t5 tek light with 6 39 watt 10k bulbs.
In the bottom is my fuge which should hold all sorts of critters for food. This used to be my fuge that was lit by a costco 65 watt floodlight. I already have about 10 frags in there already, I am also running a reverse photoperiod. I am pretty happy about this for my tank is soooo overgrown.... And I need a convenient place to put frags every time I break something when I stick my hand in. What ya all think? F |

Sorry camera battery died.. Here is an update...
Caulerpa took off... started overgrowing the frag area a bit... All frags are still doing great.. some nice overgrowth on the plugs now. The t5's changed my colors a bit... the purple slimer is still purple but the base got a little lighter... My bright blue stag is a little brighter blue.. Yellow milles still yellow, green mille turned a little brown... My pink birdsnest is now pink, yellow and green, instead of all pink... Wierd. I have 6 t5's with 5 aquablue's and 1 6500k. as compared to 4 20k helios 250 mh with supplemental sunlight.. I am a true believer in 6500k supplementation now! |

Seriously I'll get to the pictures... You have to understand that the frag/fuge has a tek t5 setup on top, while the whole thing is encased in a cabinet..
So it is a little hard to get in there to take pictures... |

Frags are doing great... only problem soo far is the damn algae is growing through the eggcrate, so prunings are becoming a PIA.
I hate the chaeto for it doesnt break as easy as the caulerpa, but the caulerpa grows faster.... The colors with the t5's are a little dimmer... 250 MH + sunlight definitly has more bright color. Sorry T5 only guys... A green mille turned green brown. But the blues and purples and pinks have stayed bright! It seems you never win sometimes |
