Very nice
TIP
Marvin have you think about running the overdriven bulbs normally
i think they will look a lot better cause when you overdrive a bulb they tend to look more whiter and they dont last long then beeing normal driven
I like the fact that I'm overdriving the bulbs coz they are a little whiter than normal bulb... I think if I didn't overdrive the middle four, it'll be too blue for me... by having the middle four bulbs overdriven, I don't have to worry about the corals not having enough light... I only have the overdriven bulbs on for 5 hours right now and will increase it to 6 hours maximum... I like viewing the tank with Blue+ only... no worries on changing the bulbs every 10 months... thanks for the suggestion though.... :)


I wonder where mine came from :D
:) :) :)


This is what my Original Mummy Eye looks like under 20k XM

wow, how deep is your tank? maybe shade a little? if you like the more green look but if you like how your Orig ME look atm, it looks cool as well... maybe when I frag the main colony, I'll move one up and I'll take a side by side photo in a few months to see any difference in color... :)

My tank is 24" deep & I do have it placed in the open so it gets good light, I have a frag that I'm gonna grow in a shadier area to see what happens but I've always seen them looking more yellowish green. Here's another pic under 14k mh

yeah, the Orig ME has always been one of my favorite chalice... can change drastically, depending on the lighting you give it... kinda cool IMHO... :)

Here's one that's still in recovery mode, but should turn out to be a looker. Gaining more pink with time, and the orange spots are forning in the yellow eyes.
