That looks like a kenya tree to me.

If you look at the newest pics on my tank build you will see that I have added much more rock so it is balanced.

Instead of going through the hassle of moving the lights I think I am going to just try to always feed on the T5 side and see if that makes any changes. I heard that fish will stay in the side of the tank they always get fed on but I am not sure if that is really true.

That would actually be a great test but the way I have the lights up on the tank it would take about 2 hours to move the around and a major pain because of lack of planning on my part.

I second that. Congrats.

A VERY interesting fact............ I have T5 on 1/2 my tank and Solaris on the other 1/2. The fish are OBVIOUSLY more fond of the Solaris. They will not even go to the other side of the tank unless I feed them over there! It is almost like they are scared of that side.

It took my kenya about 6 months or so to drop one branch but it has always looked big and happy so I have never seen the issues of too much BUT maybe this is just the start and it will start to drop like crazy? We will see.

UPDATE......... Some more stuff for everyone to look at. I will be adding more rock in the coming weeks. Just got it today and have to let it cure.

I am still not 100% sold on these lights. I love the convenience of them and the ability to adjust them but I also have T5 on the other 1/2 of the tank and I am trying things out before buying the other 1/2 of Solaris. I will post new pictures on my tank build site probably in a couple hours...

Re: To MH or not to MH? Depends on your point of view. To each is own.......

I have heard of people using plastic coat hangers for this also. Much cheaper.

yea but he said he did not want to part out so you would have to buy it all, right?

Now I have a clown that I want out! They are all evil! I think it is a world of difference to compare the two lights. I really don't understand what you mean Carlo by saying it is bad on energy becuase my energy bills have not gone up one cent after adding these lights and I know it would...
