I'm looking to change my T5's. I'm looking for a recomendation on which 4 T5's to use (ATI brand) with 2 Icecap 16K 250w HQI MH's.
The icecap bulbs are a little white but that's fine. I'm looking for a nice bulb combination to make it a little bit bluer but no completely blue.
Thanks.
I put real shells from a beach in Italy by my father's house and the shell just attracts diatom algea. The top (which was a beautiful orange)is brown and looks like garbage.

I think i'm ok with the water. I'm actually pretty comfortable with the way things went. I thought it would be so much more of a big deal but it's really easy and I can't wait to have the third treatment done with.

If I can get my cleaner...

I did 10hour treatments each time. With a 10 gallon water change after each one and ran carbon, no skimmer at the time. I don't think I missed any SPS in the display unless there was some encrusted...
Wow, a full week. I was so nervous yesterday that I would lose things like my pipefish or some of my smaller fishes. haha. I guess I was nervous for no reason. My biggest losses were my hermits but they were running a muck anyhow.
I did get a couple of SPS from here and there, looked over it...
