Well if that doesn't just suck! I guess I better take all of my LED's off of my tanks and buy back all of my MH's. I'm getting tired of how fast all of my corals are growing anyway.... I've got so many frags that I've started giving them away. Who would of guessed after 1 1/2 years of running LED's that they don't work?
