My New Pendants

[RonPeter]

Well my new to me pendants arrived today that I bought off Derek when he sold all his stuff off. Here are a few pics of them. I am hoping to get them set-up in a few weeks and naturally there will be MORE pics to follow!

When you fire up those new lights you're going to have to get your fish some shades. :cool: That center brace shadow from your single light will be history. :dance:

Yes he did Rob, thanks alot! I am just going to do some research on it now. Do you live near him?

he lives about 2 minutes from where i work. im buying his remora skimmer from him, and maybe a few other little things.
if you decide on it, i can get it from him and send it your way.

OK so I fired the lights up tonight, they fired right up. The bulbs are 14K Sun Aquatics in there right now but I want to replace them with 14K Phoenixs in the future. Does anyone know if the Phoenixs will fire up with a pulse ballast? Thanks and enjoy the pic.

[Aquadude]

All DE bulbs need a pulse start or electronic ballast to work. You'll be ok.
Now show us the tank lit up with these puppies!

[RonPeter]

Now show us the tank lit up with these puppies!

WOW put me under pressure!!! And they say I am a picoholic!!! :but: :hysterica:hysterica:hysterica

[Aquadude]

:D What goes around comes around. Hehe.

[robzilla]

with those new lights and your newly acquired fragging skills, you're going have to setup another tank for frags :) :hail:

[RonPeter]

That's actually in the works Rob, I have a 50 gallon tank with fresh water fish in it now, whenever they all die off I am planning on converting it to a frag tank. My 24" MH pendant will fit over it nicely! I will use my coralife skimmer on it when I replace it with a better one on this tank! The fish in the 50 gallon are quite old so it should be soon, they are all 5-8 years old.
