Did you ever replace the mccosker's and leopard wrasses. If not think about a trio of flame wrasses. they are absolutely amazing looking.

No I haven't, I am still looking for a supplier that has both in stock for reasonable prices and shipping under $40. A trio of Flames . . . sounds expensive.
 
Picked up some new frags.

PAR Readings, I want to thank Glenn Sellers for letting me use his PAR meter! Readings were taken with all pumps off and all lights on. I was very surprised at how much PAR the T5's put out. An inch under the ATI Blue Plus was 500! An inch under the UVL Super Actinic was 380! The T5's are a week old and the Phoenix MH's are 8 months old. Tomorrow I will be taking new readings with brand new Phoenix bulbs.

As promised, I put in the new Phoenix bulbs and let them run for two hours before taking the PAR readings.

Can't see a lot of the photos because your bandwidth has been exceeded. I'll look on the 1st.

Same here. the only pictures to show are on this page. :(
From one 120g owner to another, I am sure your tank ROCKS! :)
 
Yes, I have 38,000 hits per month on my Photobucket account so they cut me off until January. I uploaded the new pictures to Bubble Share.

What camera do you use? The pics of the wrasses are unreal! Great tank. I love the dimensions of 120g tanks...I guess that's why I have two of them!
