Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I switched to LED's a few months ago and I started at 40% and went up 5% every 4-5 days. I have had them at 60% now and I think I am going to just leave them there. Every time I try to up them higher I seem to have problems with the stuff in the tank.
Don't forget to run water on it. I also found that if you put tape on the bottom of the glass it doesn't splinter as much. Also lay a towel or something down just incase the tape doesn't hold the cut out. You wouldn't want it falling on the tank and cracking the glass.
