That's beautiful Bev, Good Morning!
 
Good morning Sven, those are awesome lights!
Morning. Just collecting whats still out there for possible future use.
It will be interesting to see par output on the Lumenarcs vs all my other ones.
Looking for 16" and 20" Lumenbrites. This is my 16" LB.

Good morning nerds! Look who’s out and about today. The other fish seems to be letting it be. I’m beginning to wonder if it’s a female.

Good Morning Kev! Good looking McCosker's.
 
Anyone have a name for these. It was 2 heads when I mounted it and put it in the back on the bottom of my 150.

Good morning Smorgasbord family!!!! Taking the day off the vet is coming to check Dottie and get some medicine for her ears she came down with what I think is a double ear infection and to check Leo to see if he needs more medicine for his skin since he's broke out again. I swear these horses are giving me more grey hair... I also have a dentist appointment that I'm not looking forward to. Lol
Ear infections are so bad. Hopefully they clear up quickly

I said I wasn't going to say anything until it arrived, but do you guys remember the other day when I posted the pictures of green hair algae that was smothering my tank? Well Kevin decided that was enough and is sending me a sea hare! He would not take no for an answer. He didnt want to see my lose everything in my tank.

Sorry for ruining your bad boy reputation, Kevin.and telling everyone how awesome you are!
With 2 soon becoming 3 tanks in my house, I think we can keep him happy for a while. If we run out of algae we will pay him forward.
