Let us know how your tanks are doing for those that just setup new systems. I just wanted to check in since I haven't seen posts to update us.

I know you are all busy buying presents and making plans. Don't forget that we will be going to the Frag Swap in January.

Take care,

TechDiver

I know you were thinking about those LED pendants, but they sure are expensive. You could always go with some used lighting now and see if the price comes down later down the road.

I got a little busy lately and also picked up another hobby I always wanted to try. I got an early Christmas present.

I'll post a pic and a little info.

The t5s I got now one end is not near as bright and the color is a little to yellow for me.If I put more blue bulbs,then I lose some intensity.

I got it to hover for a little bit today, but then I started loosing it and brought it down too hard. I've broken about $5 worth of parts so far. I going to get FMS simulator going tonight and try that out.

Why would you dose sugar what's the benefit of that?

SNAKEMANVET · 12/28/2010, 06:13 PM
