| The Wand Geek was here. ;)   | Re: Grow out system? Well, I went ahead and ordered the lighting system tonight. I found a complete 4 bulb T-5 retro set: including (all new) IC 660, wiring harness, power plug, heat sink, 8 endcaps, standoffs, and reflectors for $280 with free shipping (marine depot). I also ordered four T-5 10k bulbs. That should light all 10 tanks well enough since the tanks are side by side. If not, I can always order another set. I was trying to find used but most people wanted close to (or more) than $100 for a used IC660 but you can get them new for $124 (ballast, heatsink, wiring harness).... so I got all new stuff.

| Sunshine Reefer  | Re: Grow out system? Captive bred is the way to go. Ad an aquaculture facility as well and then we can add lots of corals and clams.

| Reef Lobster | Re: Grow out system? you guys should all move to mankato so we can work together at it :P' I always buy tank raised/aquacultured when I can. its more used to the tank and doesn't involve taking something from its home in the wild. I like that.
