After having all the lighting problems with my supplier and my latest lighting, I really regret not DIY my own lightings.

I have been visiting hardware shops and have seen quite a number of parts that could be used to make nice DIY lighting. I would definitely DIY my own 2 x 250W MH for my next upgrade.

Btw, I went down to try to search for the Mustafa LFS yesterday night. Cannot find leh. :( Maybe its in one of the dark alleys. :P

I think depending on the situation ..... I think an important fixture like the lights should not come second class or be compromised on in any chance. Initially I wanted to save money on that but in reality I think it's worth to get quality products because if anything should go wrong I could always blame it on someone and not myself....... :lol::P

No wonder rumours floating around that you spend $30K on your setup, must be lots of secret equipment :P

What bulbs does your MH comes with???

Blame other no use, your tank already affected :P

Aggression between leathers and SPS can be kept at a minimum if you have carbon running from what i understand. You will also need a powerful skimmer generally.

Ap, maybe one of your secret devices can help to minimise the agrression between the two species..

he...he...maybe so , thats why keeping a mixed reef is a challenge for me and I intend to have best of both worlds in there..... :D Even with my RSB which is nothing compared to the other skimmers in te market right now , I think it's how you personally maintain your tank to an extent..... ;)

My water circulation is excellent at the moment and with the ozonizer attached I hope to acheive something...... :D
