hi folkys, just wanted to start documenting an experiment. i have a decent enough sps frag tank, with nicely colored stuff.
our current setup uses:
- radion g4s
- t5s
- reefbrite blue strips
so maybe a bit over half the acros look ok, like this:
BUT even cooking at 700 to 900 par with this 'new tech' setup, some pieces are not at an acceptable coloration - like aussie green and aussie light brown. thanks @Biggles !
so back to the future... METAL HALIDES here we come! welcome to jurrasic park!
i just made my brother install a 250w 20k radium on my secondary frag tank, so i can see what happens... especially in my new 1000 par high area. i'll kinda run radion blues channels as well. crash n burn!
just sharing ;Clown
i'll try and share results now and then. here's the experiment tank...
