Would you mind providing a detailed instructions on how to replace the PC with the t5 HO setup? Did you swap ballasts? How many bulbs do you have in there now?

well it was quite a long time ago from what i remember i took the white pc set out by just removing the plastic covering.. and replaced it with a retro t5 kit.. not sure what kind, i dont think it was a brand.. and now i have 2 bulbs in there.. it looks stock but its just t5 instead of pc

UpDaTe: I removed all the Bio-Balls from the 2nd chamber in the rear and created a refugium!! YAY
I bought:
Miracle Mud
Clip on PC light
Rubble Rock
Chaeto

and set it all up, and now my tank is crystal clear!!

Also i added a clownfish- Adult.. he or she and the other clown are now LOVE birds, they dont move more than 5in away from each other.. I do have a problem tho, my baby clown has 10-20 black dots on him, they arent indented, but they are in his skin. He is eating fine and doesnt show any negative symptoms but i dont know what to do. Help!

I will post pics in 5 minutes!

I found a pic from google, these are what the spots look like, but his are smaller and there are more of them

the black spots are stings from him hosting in zoas or some other coral. he should eventually become immune to the coral and the black spots will disappear

im getting a new mated pair of clowns!
