Ok guys, OC has set the bar. I have some GSP that I'll sell for $40 per sq. in. It is ORA certified and is guarantied to overtake your tank in less than 18 months. What da ya think?

i think he's going to do well in this forum... but i know where you're coming from schigara...
like right now there's this guy selling bolivian amarali boa's on the recycler for 500 bucks... WTF... i know they are rare... but the breeder only sells them for 200 bucks tops...!
but yeah... people need to stop claiming top aquarist status and try to rip fellow aquarist off like this...

Oh Gumbi,
How can I sell you bullshit if you won't take it seriously?
Why won't you seriously commit to Oc's Xenia bullshit and my GSP bullshit?
They are both certified by us to be good and pure.
So, what's the problem? heh
I do take PayPal.

hey schig... do you know where i can get a 250w MH retrofit kit for cheap shipped...? i'm thinking about upgrading my lighting system... i'm thinking about going 520w total lighting... i got the hook ups on all kinds of SPS corals in the fish club that i didn't know of before... they're giving me huge frags for 5-10 bucks each... but i need to upgrade lights, and get a chiller... fail... probably score another two koralia's for the tank to don't you think...?

Sorry man, dunno. I got my blueline e-ballasts cheap locally as well as the reflectors, DE sockets and bulbs.
One of my LFS owners keeps an awesome SPS/mixed tank with just an array of T5's and his stuff grows much faster than mine with halides. He has about 30x's turnover rate and I have about 40x's.
Also, flow is great and helps to suspend organics in the water column to be skimmed and keep nitrates low but too much flow just makes the SPS grow thick and slows the outward growth. This has been my experience with SPS.

hmm... i have to sit down and map everything down then... also my budget... i think my budget for this will be a grand... that's lights, chiller, and water movement, and maybe a auto-top off... hmm...

Don't fret too much over water movement with SPS. A member of the club here is an SPS junkie with more that 120x's turnover rate. His SPS look like body builders on steroids and take forever to grow but he could probably throw in a cheeseburger a day and it would be churned up and skimmed out without raising the nitrate level at all.
