Ill pull that tape off after the saki's hurry the glue up on those reflectors...Ill also be adding a couple PC 96's for blue supplement. Ill also be adding some weather strippign around the top doors to stop any light leaks there or around the cabinet when I get it done.
Lighthing should not be my weak point this time around.
BTW, those are 250w Iwasaki's on a MV ballast. Its almost silent (can't hear it over my computer fan anyway.

The Pizza Hut was excellent, and the Ace hardware bag contains the 90 degree elbo's I swore I wasn't going to use on my plumbing that I attached to my plumbing today!
The funny part is this....You know when you have a window shade open, and your dog will come and curl up in the warm spot on the floor where the light shines in? Well my dog does this every single chance she gets she is very cold natured. Today after the lights had been on for about 20 minutes, she spotted the bright spot on the floor and curled up in it. If I can fool my dog with a substitute for the sun, hopefully my brainless corals will not notice either!!!!
