I ordered new bulbs for the t5 direct from ATI on 8/10. Little did I know they would be shipped USPS GRound from California. I am taking bets on how many are NOT broken when they get here (hopefully by end of the week).

I'll be optimistic and say they will all arrive intact!
What is this anything else you speak of?

Saving up for the Mantis. Unless there is a fish that can hold its own against Frank and Elvis not likely any newbies for the 180g. The cube is getting moved this weekend so no new additions there, but I would like to add something in the future.
Also planning a stop to get some ingredients for another batch homemade food. I have salmon in the freezer that I just cant eat and I think some whitefish of some kind. Nori and spirulia. Just need some mysis, and Misc seafood. Going to see if I can find an Asian market or just go to a local fish market and see what they have.

Finally got around to putting the used T5 bulbs in the fixture. Oh my. Other than the heat they give off these things are AMAZING. 3 of the 4 work so have a blue in front and back then the coral plus in front and dud in back. Had to rework some of the plugs and now under the tank is a mess. I'll fix it later. Have them set to run from 1-5pm for now. Reprogramed the leds so I don't burn them up. Then if needed based on par readings I can amp up the leds as needed. I hope this is the right way to start them up.
Here's the schedule for the Leds the box is when the t5s will kick on.
1 Red
2 green
3 royal blue
4 cool white
5 cool blue
6 violet

If things go according to plan today the cube will be transferred to the living room and I'll get the par meter from the lfs. Worked on the flooring again last night and almost there one more week of work it should be down. Next weekend is the fw tank breakdown move and reset. And honey.

Tank has been moved. Yes I need to fix the door. Got the par meter for the week so I can test all the tanks. The t5 bulbs are mia so the old ones will have to do until I put a dispute in on monday.
