Yotes 125

[flojo]

minus the awful getting laid off part....geeze. thats an awesome deal yote! im a little jealous!

 

[yote]

I guess I should have ran out and bought a lottery ticket.That was a once in a lifetime thing right there.

Heres some quick shots of the new lights:
Heres how the moonlights are laid out:

Not real happy about the color of the 10000K HQIs:

But it sure is nice to have the whole tank lit:D

 

[hoopsdaddy]

Looking great man. The is awesome. That is a great deal. Your corals will love the 10K's, although "I" personally like the 14-15K look better. Some people say they get better growth out of the 10K, but it is a little whiter than I like it to look. What bulbs are you looking at replacing them with.

 

[yote]

I've not settled on a brand Hoops.But probably going to go with either 15 or 20K.

 

[hoopsdaddy]

I think your corals are growing faster already!! Love the whole look of your tank so far. Keep up the good choices.

 

[Alexander]

dang man im jealous! nice lights!

 

[Smitty]

Hey Yote, your tank is ("i'm speechless"), WOW...

And that was one hell of a deal on those lights...you truly do have all the luck!

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I'm a bit jealous....J/K Good Job!

 

[Piggy]

Lights look good. Your tank looks amazing.

 

[yote]

Thanks guys.I like the lights,but will like em more when I get the funds to replace those 10K bulbs.
Dont think my fish like the new lights though.Both the new anthias and my red fairy wrasse decided to go carpet surfing while I was at work today.:grumble:
I mean WTF??? 3 fish in one day:frustrat:
So I'm back to 2 fish in a 125 gallon tank,the Atlantic blue tang and my LMB.
So now I've got to start looking at fish again.

 

[ccCapt]

I'll take the Atl blue and you can start all over again. :)
I still can't find 1. :(

 

[yote]

I'll keep the lil feller:D He's my favorite fish.
I think their out of season Capt.We've had several people come into the store wanting to order ABTs,and we cant get em right now.

hate to hear that yote

 

[RyanG]

That sucks Yote might be time to consider meshing your top.

 

[Bifferwine]

Sorry to hear that Yote. Maybe it was murder-suicide? Those are becoming all too common nowadays. Did they all happen to lose their jobs recently? What a weird coincidence though. I can't help but wonder if something startled the tank. That's the only thing I could think of to make so many fish jump at the same time.

 

[Piggy]

Sorry to hear about your fish My firefish also went carpet surfing. I finally put mesh on the back of the canopy.

 

[hoopsdaddy]

Stop stocking flying fish in your tank yote! Sorry to hear about the losses, that sucks!
Hope you find some great new additions.

 

[daugherty]

[stagofdoom]

That sucks to hear yote. Im going to be looking into getting an ABT.

Thats all I can think of to Biff,But I dont know what it could have been.Wasnt nobody home all day.But they have seemed more skiddish since I fired up the new lights.Maybe they dont like the shimmer lines the halides create:dunno:
