    I was looking to pick some up also. How many do you need, surely not 25? That is about as good as you will get on price. LFS is $5-6/ea.

    AI Sol Blue/Vega upgrade or Orphek Nilus

    I just switched to 2 Vegas from 2x 150W halides and 4x T-5's. I was without lights for a week and lost color in my SPS. It has been a week now and I can see some color coming back with the Vegas.

    New house= new tank

    Welcome to the neighbor hood! I'm just down the road in Stirling and I also just moved from an apartment in to a house. I used the move as and excuse to upgraded from a 40B & 65G to a 120. I would stick with a glass tank and as others have said, if you have the room downstairs use it.

    Designing a my new aquarium

    I am running a RO XS160 on my 120. My tank is lightly stocked, and has been running less than 2 weeks, but it is pulling out some crud from the tank. Waiting to see how it does in the long run when I get some more livestock.

    Heaters

    I have 3 of them, two of them I've used now for over a year and have not had any problems. Only downside is they stopped using the magnet mounts and went to suction cups. The controller can be calibrated which is nice. I have two running on my 120 (500W main and 300W backup) and I calibrated...

    AI Vega or Sol Settings

    The controller sends intermittent signals based on the program. Anytime there is a lighting change the controller sends a signal to the lights. If the controller is turned off, the lights stay at their current setting.

    AI Vega or Sol Settings

    I do have them, but they have only been on my tank for 4 days now. So far so good. I love the ability to tune in the lights to my liking, and the reds (not too sure about the greens) really make a difference. I had the tank purple at one point while I was playing with the levels. :)

    Guy almost kills house hold

    We should really change the term "boiling rock" as some people, as in this case, take the term literally and the results could be fatal. There is also a possibility the rock can explode. DO NOT BOIL ANY ROCK IN A POT ON THE STOVE!!! To "boil" rock means to place the rock in an opaque...

    AI Vega or Sol Settings

    Right now I have whites set to 60%, blues all set to 80% and red and green at 20%. I am using the coral acclimation mode on the new controller and have it set for a 50% reduction for 8 weeks.

    +1 on the 120G. I just upgraded from a 65 to a 120 and I love the dimensions of the new tank.

    The Ferrite choke on the power cords will require 1-1/4" PVC. LoL

    65 to 120 Upgrade

    Yea, I know there are a ton of option for cable routing along the walls. It's the wall to the lights that I need to figure out. As you can see in the pic, the end of the power wires are HUGE. Right now they go up and come back down.
