My end pics come out great as well! Always some of my favorites. Wish my tank was that deep as well.

Word update, so I'm sure no one is reading!

I swapped the 10000K XM bulb over the sump with a 14000K pheonix. A lot of the corals were loosing color in the sump as frags, so I'm hoping this helps out.

Chris, do you like the 14K better than the 10K now as far as coloration goes? Or has it even been long enough to make a determination?

It may have been too much light... but I'm hoping the bluer color and likely less PAR output will help stymie the color loss. And I'm thinking about putting some frag packs together for shipping, so I'll keep you posted. I think I've flooded the market with the locals, and I'm gonna need to move to a national market!

For all 7 hours so far... I really dont know. I imagine it will help, it better matches the colors from the T5s that I use.

Very nice Chris. I really like the corals growing on the back wall, that is a great idea.
