Well, with the blessing of my wife I am taking the plunge from a 28 bow to a real reef, 90 gallons. It is on an AGA pine stand, and I will eventually be retrofitting an AGA pine canopy with 6 VHO t5's using Icecap ballasts and SLR's. The t5's are awesome on the 28, and are barely warm so I am...

Just an update, added a few more rics and encrusting monti's. Lost a clown for an unknown reason, but the other inhabitants are all healthy. Tang seems to be ignoring the caulerpa, so he's gonna be going into the new 90 gal Will from AqOb hooked me up with.

Can't wait to see it grown in. Sorry to hear about the fungus. :-\

The flow in there looks great, maybe I need to angle my seio a little lower... and I love the GSP on glass look. Did you encourage it or did it just happen?

Love teh tank. The halimeda gives it a natural feel. How old is that clam?

OMG it sux! For a while I seemed to have it under control, with the monthly pruning. But I think it's the beefed up lights. I am seriously contemplating a low nutrient system to starve it if the tang get help. I think the main problem is it crowding out coral. I should probably cut back on...

Thanks for the comments guys. Figured I'd post a few updates. New FTS Yes that is a tang, yes I know it's a 28 gal. I'm hoping he can help out with the caulerpa maintenance. I plan on getting a 220 eventaully but if that is not soon enough I'll be sure to find him a new, bigger, home. If he...

OK, so I went to the BIG frag swap, and only found another 11 frags to add to my tank. There was so much awesome livestock... I gotta get me a 210! Here are pics of a few of them... Pocillopora Pokerstar Monti Blastomussa ?Merletti? Big ole mixed zoa rock Palys Green Yuma and Red shroom...

Ok, so with the reduced photoperiod the color already seems to be returning to the pink plate. Thanks for your help guys! Keeping my fingers crossed.

My little 28 bow

You could work in some T5's. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3578+3733+16770&pcatid=16770 You need 4.5" and these are pretty cheap.

You're right. What about leaving the actinics on the current 12 hour setting and reducing the daylight to 5 hours and increasing it an hour a week?

Thanks guys! I'm using: 2X ATI Blue plus's 2X ATI 12000k Aquablue Specials 1X 6000k Giesemann Midday Got the combo off reefcentral, everyone with T5's was going with about these temperatures at this ratio. And I heard far too many good things about ATI to not get them. One of my disc corals...

Got new T5's, they really make the colors pop. Can you tell a difference? PC's T5's And the few things I picked up at Aquatic Obsessions' Anniversary Sale (I got there too late, I heard there were some wicked pink Stylo's)

I'd say I got him late August. Doing just fine so far.
