How's it going?

Well I know I havnt been on here much, but I have just been so busy with the finals at school so I dont have much time. Well update on tank and lights is I couldn't get the tank because the water pump went out on the truck I was going to use, and the other trucks plates were past due( I guess when gas is the price it is people dont drive huge ford f-350 diesel dullys)LOL but I did get the light. Man this thing is nice it really lights the whole tank up. It's a finnex 6 54watt bulb fixture. It has made a huge change to the tank. I have since added some xenia and PSP and if they do good I'll start adding some zoa's. I'll have pics of the light in a few min's. BTW how's everyone doing? Great I hope.

BTW so far they seem to run just as hot as my pcs but they're not raising the tank temp, so I guess they're all right.

Here's the fixture.

And here's the whole tank. The pic looks bad it makes it look more yellow than anything else but the tank is more of a white blue like in the pic of the whole fixture.

Oh yeah, and as you can see the diatoms are starting. You can tell most on the maxijet modded it looks more brown around the end.

Re: How's it going?

LOL yeah I'm back alright. Been making bottles and changing diapers too. Yote they are t-5s I checked because I thought they didnt get hot. The fan is out on the light so that might be why. I'll have to get another fan for it. Hawk The only mod I can think of is the individual reflectors but I dont know if there is room I'll have to look into it more.
