That's what I been looking for. They have two all blue ones. 453nm and 445nm. Which one would look more like actinic's? Think I could get by with four of them?

I have a 125 gallon tank. I had 2 36"corallife T5 HO 39 W actinic and 10,000K lights. I replaced them with 2 evolution LED's. I really liked the look of the T5's better than The LEDs. I put the T5's back on with the LED's and it looks really good. Makes the color of the coral pop out better...

Never thought of that. Water can only get as high as the hole

I have a 125 gallon with 225 pounds of live rock and a 40 breeder for the sump. That was too much rock for the DT, just looked like a big wall. I took out as much rock as I could get in the sump. I have a table over the sump that I want to put a Refugium on. I want to use a 10 gallon tank. My...

This is the model I have. E-200W-3G-2:1 Bought from my LFS, first one a couple of weeks ago. I went yesterday to get some supplies, and they had all their LEDs on sale, great price couldn't turn down. I tried a little experiment with my coralife fixtures. They are 36", each has one 39w...

Do the blue LEDs have any benefit for growing corals, or are they just to make the tank look better to us?

I have two questions. My tank is 125 gallons 72 inches long 20 inches deep. I have one evolution LED 200 W 3G.LED Aquarium Lighting | Evolution LED Lights 2:1 blue/warm white. I will be getting another one when funds allow. I have it hanging about 14 inches above the water in the center for now...

OK I will try a LPS. Thanks for your input.

I had my LFS double check my readings they were very close. The reason I am dosing is to get the calcium up so I can add some corals.

Don't know what to do next. I have a 125 gallon with 20 gallon sump 225 pounds of live rock and anenome that came with the rock from an existing tank. One rock has a polyp on it and it looks healthy. Tank has been up about five months, and never really cycled. I took about30 gallons of water...

It's been running about a month. It is in 6 inches of water. The outlet tube has been all the way up for more than a week. Thanks for the response.

I have had this skimmer for over a month already and I cannot get it to wet skim. I have tried 5 to 12 inches of water in the sump. All I can get is foam. I only collect skimmate inside the cone about a half an inch from the top. I do have the adjustment with the foam around it all the way up. I...
