    Attachment 2826

    i am a little disappointed in the color of the 250w XM bulb, i bet you cant tell which one it is, can you ?? yup its the one that doesn't match !! but i am searching e-bay right now for another coralife reeflux 250 !! i know i need to move a few corals from direct halide lights, i just haven't had the time yet. as ALWAYS i hit a snag in switching the VHO's, now of the 3 that are going back on the 55gal. only 1 is working and i see NO problems in the configuration. hmmmm. i better get to thinking cuz the wife wants some LPS's !!

    Bobby,

    The Coralvue Reeflux bulbs you got from me are 10K not 14K if that is what you are looking for.

    that is what i am looking for !! there is a HUGE difference in the MX 10k and the Coralife 10k !! the coralife is MUCH crisper or bluer than the XM.

    well i had to build a new canopy over the last few days. the old one just wasn't cutting it for me. to much of the light was escaping from the tank because it was hanging from the ceiling. so here are pics of the new one ...
