They're definitely not frags anymore.

BTW, I was searching back looking for the specs on your lighting. I saw that you used Lumenarc and Icecap ballasts. I'm assuming you went with 400w lamps? What type of bulbs did you go with? I just ordered some of the EVC 10k 400w bulbs that you had done the spectral analysis on. I can't wait to see what kind of growth I'll get with them, considering the PAR.

Now that we've had all that eye candy, how about those lighting specs?

Beautiful tank Sanjay I wish I had your tank in my basement. :D :D
I also was wondering if you could tell us your light specs. I see you
are using lumanarc reflectors. Are you using se or de bulbs. also can you tell me what ballast you are using because I have already got some lumanarc reflectors and I plan on using xm 250w bulbs and I am not sure what ballast I should use.

thx in advance for any info

Actually it was an opening for Jake to post his pic. We all thought it was a great photo set up. Jake in the tank and me out of the tank, taking the same pic :) Sanjay wore that shirt with no prompting from anyone ;)
