Typical behavior, it's almost like it helps them digest to swim around like that idk. The only fish mine won't chase off during this time is my tailspot blenny. They go kill plate to gill plate and swim together. I think you'll be fine

Good! I LOVE the color of these wrasse!

@00W
Joel, a song for your new venture starting tomorrow.

Thanks Paul needed that!

So if anyone's interested, coralvues got a deal going on for these fixtures as well as bulbs. I bought bulbs a few weeks back and this was too good of a deal to pass up. Additional 10% off going on as well so like 225$ for the 4ft fixture!

As you guys know yesterday was my birthday. Today would've been my dad's. He passed away a couple years back. I used to love to call him on his birthday and he'd call me on mine. Id always say, ill get you back tomorrow.
He loved this song.
Here's one for you Dad.

Sorry John...

Just ordered new Giesemann bulbs in different colors for the big tank!
They are actually stellar bulbs Mike!

They had a closeout on those, mix and match 10 for 120 so like $12 each! Figured I'll have a year and a half worth!

I think this, with my 2 viparspectra is going to be awesome lighting. Someday maybe upgrade the 2 vipar to something like a orphek bar or 2 in blue? But that'll be a ways away

Don't know how well y'all can see this but I put the little tank in front of the window.
Amy just sits here all day taking in the sun, if we have any.
I only have actinic bulbs over this tank.

You run solely t5 on your tanks Joel? I remember you were playing with colors previously. Just swapping bulbs right?

Their bulbs are super classy and great quality.
I've been using them for years.
I'm now just running 4 2 foot bulbs over the 100.

Yes only T5's.
I tried the leds but I couldn't get the colors I wanted and the clarity and softness that T5's give.

I hate the shadows/Hotspot so i'm going to split the difference! I cant justify spending thousands on leds....

Y'all know I love a white light tank.
Here's an ati aqua blue special and a ati blue plus.
I've got 4 different bulbs on this tank, two on each side.
The fun of using 2 foot fixtures!
I'm changing these out to all geismann bulbs, 2 aqua blue coral and 2 actinic blue.
Still very white.

Just so y'all know, aiptasia looks most awesome under white light!

I got a mix of giesemann aquablue coral, super actinic, and super purple. Pretty excited. Think I'll run the viparspectra as blue only and get my whiter lighting from the t5

To much celebrating his sister’s wedding

Awesome Mike you'll be happy.
The aqua blue coral is a nice bulb.
I ran those for years on my 75.
They grow coraline well too.
