My new baby is finally up and running. 150G acrylic with 2 x 290W Stray Light Optical Seashine plasma lights. Running the lights with a Reefkeeper Lite and Advanced Light Controller module.
Dry run...I moved the contents of the 30G in the pic into the 150...

The base unit is $995 but it looks like he got some add ons (for dimming)

These are the final Beta units and were $995 each. After I figured the fixture cost on a MH/T5 combo plus replacement bulb costs, it is just a bit larger cost at the front end and averages out (hopefully).

Wow - No messing around for an upgrade! Looks good!
Will the sides of your tank get enough light?

Nice. Interested to see how the plasma lights do. Are you considering running any kind of actinic lighting?

nice setup, looking forward to following this- the lighting loos plenty bright, any PAR comparisons? That mystery wrasse (?) looks really cool!
Nice! Afraid to ask how bad the Plasmas set you back.
