Snapped about 250 pics tonight and got around 10 keepers..lol. not the best average : ) Had fun though and that's all that counts. Taken under 6 bulb ATI PM (Aquablue Special, 2 Blue, 2 Super Actinic, and 1 Fiji Purple - all bulbs on). Taken w/ Canon XT and Macro lens in RAW. White balance adjusted in PE. Just a few of them..

It is a wild Superman colony. Would love to see a pic of yours. I just got mine from a R2R vendor a month or so ago and it's VERY nice. Looks better than my Tyree Superman actually!

looks good Craig!

Thanks Jordan! You a married man yet?

Enjoy your free time then Jordan. Marriage and moving a tank? That's two major life changes. Don't take on a third...that could be trouble...lol

Congrats man.

Thanks Kris. #2 is The Firecracker and #4 is the Pink & Blue Agave. The Firecracker is awesome but is a slow grower for me. The Pink & Blue Agave came in colored down quite a bit but it apprently loves the T5's! I really like that one.

I appreciate the comments.:bigsmile:

Looking good. Seems like a cool T5 combo you've got going for chalices/LPS (I run something similar for sunrise/sunset with blue plus/fiji purple/actinic, but need a few more white bulbs in their for my SPS :) ).

Thanks mccliffy...you still running the Sfiligoi Stealth on your display? I'm growing some SPS with this combo as well but it is a frag tank - I'm running the 12 bulb Sfiligoi on my display - and love the thing!
