I was supose to have had my 2x 55 watt PC( 1 10k 1 actinc) unit by now.. that i traded a Camera for.. that i think i might have just been screwed on! As it has not come in yet.. and its been 2 weeks.

When/ if ...:D
you come by, mabey you can talk to Scott about overdriving that NO setup. Scott is into that DYI stuff.

Me....well it's best if I just buy it allready built.

Something to do with the saftey of the animals or something like that.

I dont know if they make one but if you got a 175 watt Radium you probably wouldn't need actinics as they are BLUE

Chris the tank is a 33 gallon tank.. i think... its 30L 22h 12D

Wayne's, Found out becouse i started getting the Hair Algae growth.. and tested the phosphates and they where high so right away i thought about my Ro.. so i went to take it out and have it flushed when i seen it was torn..
