BC Aquatic-Man Table - This one was hanging on by a polyp after last year's crash. It is starting to show some good color and growth.

Changed out the black box LEDs for T5s. I changed over 200 diodes within 6 months and the spectrum still seemed off. PAR was good but quality of light was poor. I replaced them to T5s and now the spectrum looks great. Also, replaced the halide bulbs.

My 8 foot tank uses 2 of the 8 bulb 54watt ATI fixtures. I love T5.

3 Blue+ and 1 Coral+ in each fixture. I love T5s also. Should have done this from the start. I had the black boxes so I wanted to go with them. They just weren't doing the job anymore.

Snapped a quick phone pic last night. Only blue+ on and they still glow with no filter. I probably wont supplement with RB LEDs.

Thanks for the shot of water's surface. It gives us some idea of the flow your using on this beautiful tank.
