Before and After....

Keep fanning the flames Rakie. Leave the OP alone. He's entitled to his opinion in his thread. If you want to praise the merits of LED's then make your own thread.

Thanks!!!

But you're the one going on some tirade about hating lights, and then arguing with people for no reason..

Were just trying to figure out what this mental breakdown is all about. Who says I'm an "LED Fanboy"? I always used T5 until very recently, lol. You either have me confused with someone else, or you are mistaking having a conversation with confrontation.

Either way. I have no idea what triggered you so much, but you don't sound well..

Conversation is not fanning the flames, nor am I an LED fanboy, but I am genuinely wondering what happened to someone I've considered an extremely chill person.. Talking isn't fighting -- At least it's not supposed to be.

Was the tank started with dry rock?

Yep. Started everything dry. Dry sand. Dry Rock

You definitely have one amazing looking tank. The growth on the corals is amazing. It is definitely hard to beat a proven T5 set up. I have been running an 8 bulb T5 for the past 4 years and love it.

 

[Jeremy Luke]

All I know is that sure is a great looking tank and I hope one day my tank can look even half that nice.

Nice tank! Yall are nutty!

 

[SchnitzelReef]

I guess you missed the part where you swore you didnt' care, and weren't being a child. Fine, I don't know what happened to you all the sudden you've always been a pretty relaxed guy. But I can't help if you get triggered by people liking a different light source than you.

Everyone that comes on my threads and talks trash, I always ask that they post a pic of their tank. That way people reading the thread can be the judge on who’s opinion to listen to. [emoji1303]

let’s see that tank!!

 

[Fumanchu]

All jokes and BS aside, let’s see that tank!!

Except. Risking the wrath of Schnitzelreef - All I said was the 2 year time frame also played a role in your coral's growth. Somehow that turns me into an LED Fanboy talking trash? Then you ask people to post pictures repeatedly that have links to their tanks in their signatures as if they are afraid to do so.

If I posted the following sentence to you: 'If you dont like people's responses to your threads - go find another forum in which to post' - you wouldn't like it - just saying. Just keeping it real here - it is your 'thread' but its everyone's message board. And I haven't seen anyone 'talking trash'.

There's no point engaging with him. He's known to go off and be hyper defensive. This is just worse than usual..

Nobody said anything about listening to opinions whatsoever. Frankly, this looks more like a mental health issue to me.

Excellent job man. That growth is outstanding! I use halides myself with t5 supplements. I think t5s are an excellent choice, though you certainly dont need me to tell you that. Again, well done bro....well done!!

 

[Abhishek]

Not sure how this thread turned into a flame war of led vs T5s .

Think we should all leave that behind and praise the amazing tank of @SchnitzelReef :eek:

Take a bow my friend !!! It's beyond impressive growth

Please do me a favor and if possible post a comparison video .

One of the sickest and most amazing acropora tanks ever !!!! And honestly , if you can grow acros like that - u are entitled to any opinion you like .. period !!!

Regards,
Abhishek

First and final warning. Be nice, keep it civil, no name calling and watch the masked profanity.

Other than that have a great weekend! :)

Was hoping someone would step in and regulate [emoji1303][emoji1303]

 

[Heliarc19]

You have a very nice tank I hope mine grows half that much in 2 years. Congrats on your success

 

[Velcro]

Always one of my favorite tanks. Not sure why people feel the need to get triggered over you being vocal on YOUR thread about YOUR opinion on LED.

Keep up the great work!

I'm a big fan of that lighting combo. I used it on my last reef and the colors I got were incredible. I'm using it on my new tank too. It's also the lighting that JFox uses. WWC used to do lighting that way, but recently converted to Radions, which i'm sure was a sponsored thing. As Jfox and many others will tell you though, the more important thing is stable parameters and lots and lots of flow.

 

[Ultra Aquatics]

One of my favorite SPS tanks, been following your thread for a while on RC. When setting up my latest tank I opted to go T5's as well.

I've seen some impressive tanks running Radions, but for every one I see, I see probably 15 people who struggle to keep SPS with them.

Can you post a front view of your tank? Thansk. The side view is wonderful - the front view must be really awesome.
