BTW all the green slimers you see in the pic came from the large colony in the upper left corner.

I love them!!!

2 Lumenarcs replace 3 RoIII pendants.

Tank is now much brighter.

I am very happy with the results. :D

I think thats a bit premature.

The tank would need at least another year of growth before it could even get near the current TOTM's.

The grass is always greener on the other side:D

And LA3's are not expensive either, $120-130 each.

Probebly one of the best things I have done to my tank is add these reflectors. They cover every corner of my tank, you have to see it to belive it.

That's really cool. Thanks for the pics. Amazing growth! Did you go with different bulbs now and when did you change them (if you did)? It appears more yellow now. What are the LA 3's you were talking about? Also, how did you do it!?! That much growth I mean. Can you give me some advice? Do you feed the tank all the time and what do you feed?
Great job man. You're well on your way to TOTM IMO.

Thank you.

The first pic is with 3x Reefoptix III DE Pendants with Pheonix 14K bulbs. The other two are with the 2x LM3's with 10K xm SE 250W.

Lumenarc III can be found here www.pacificgardensupply.com .

As for the growth I run a Calcium reactor along with a Kalkwasser reactor. I do water changes once a week, 40gls of Reef Crystals.
10 drops of Lugols soloution a week.

Other than that I do not dose or add anything else.

As for feeding I feed the fish Spectrum pellets, Formula One flakes, and some frozen brime once in a while.

Corals are feed lots of fish poop. :lol:
