Thanks Doni. I really need to work on my camera skills. I am afraid i cannot do better FTS with this thing i have :(
No shrooms in my tank Andre :) All sps and a few lps. I think you are referring to my sun corals. There not doing so hot these days and will be getting moved to the refuguim soon.
Even with the picture not so hot the color of the tank is right. So you see Radium's are not to blue.

Frankie, I found this site with good prices on the Radium light bulbs. They have the 250W 20k mogul base for $69.99.
Unfortunately for me, Radium does not have any 250W 20k DE bulbs. I was looking for the DE bulbs for my fixture.
