It's in! It's in! Holy **** are these XM's the **** or what!!! The claim on them is the best par for any 10k 175 watt SE Metal Halide... seems true as far as I'm concerned. I can't believe the diff. Here's a pic or 3...

Well... pretty much just switched the CoralVue's out for the XM's... same schedule and all.

Brave....aren't you!!That's quite an increase in PAR.
We are going to try a couple of the 20k XM's on the softie tank, probably order them next week.

I guess i'd rather be safe than sorry.They may be fine, they may not, you never know in this crazy hobby. Even loosing one coral to it would suck.
