Theoritically u can just buy the new lightblub section panel to change lah. But most of the led are all wield together de... so cannot just remove bulb and change them
That is very very scary as every light set is $500-$700 for LED. Do you mean just changing the "set of LED bulbs" or really mean changing the entire light set?

Bro. Not all led offers replacement light pad de. So easier to buy more wattage than u need and buy new light set after two years.ATI Sunpower dimmable also offers timers and dimmable controls, so that actually sounds very adequate.
But I must say that thunder and cloud modes are very tempting cool feature. I thought day/night cycle already very good feature, until I realize LEDs can offer this kind of "weather mode". And must say the interface offered by Radion is very solid marketing, imagine playing god and changing the "weather" from my ipad.
But are LED bulb replacement must more costly than to replace T5 bulbs? any figure to advise?

Yo bro. Led also have timer and dimmable controls plus all those fanciful mode like thunder, cloud, etc.
Lifespan wise, led is 50000 hours or something like that. But led can lost up to 30% of their intensity in a year.
Yup, it is a very nice and relaxing sat afternoon to watch slow cloud moving over ur tank and watch the fish and coral react to the passing cloud

Lower ur kh to below 7.5 to be safe...

Yo bro. Led also have timer and dimmable controls plus all those fanciful mode like thunder, cloud, etc.Came across ATI, and there is a LED/T5 Hybrid, so best of both worlds. Not sure about the cost. but its really like in-between and not taking sides.
What I gather so far, T5 is well-known and proven for its strong lighting, but it seems like LED can do alot more fancy configuration/setting.
It is quite tempting to go along with LED, but at the same time, T5 still seems like the best-value for money. T5 also has dimmable fixtures, so what gives from the LED camp? Hmm..
I read about people changing T5 bulbs due to their limited lifespan, but what about LED bulbs?

-
Try feeding dr g anti bacteria and anti parasite caviar. My clown kanna fin rot before but now oki after eating.
-
Bro, no worry. It is in fact recommened to bubble ur newly mixed saltwater for 24 hours before using them.Oh ok. Thats my mistake to do the mixing and realise no time to do the wc.

Let me get the consumer fate correct:
1) u buy a hydra lemon
2) realises it is really a lemon
3) wanna sell the lemon but lemon warranty will cease
4) so consumer has no choice but to watch lemon becomes super lemon oh
-
Urgh... non transferable warranty oh, then i would rather go buy china led than any of the hydra lemon series...
-
Bro u can try feeding its dr g anti parasite and anti bacteria caviar.

The cue is the stomach. If your fish stomach is round and solid then it shall be fine. A fish can be eaten well but its body might not absord any nutritent due to parasites thus its stomach is important.
-
Yo Bro, care to explain more of your case for the benefit of general public (reefers)?
-
I am speechless... Sorry for your misplaced trust. From what I learnt from your case in point, I would rather buy direct from the original official site (with global warranty) than buying from local distributor next time... at least if gotten a lemon set, I can still reason it out with the official site... save me time and save me money too.

28/04/15 - SPS and Zoas
As usual, FTS for this update
Somehow, my updates have changed from a weekly update to a monthly update liao. Partly because I have been traveling quite a fair bit for the last months but also because I have already gotten most of my coral in place so there is not much I can buy or play around with.
Two particularly painful incidents happened in the last month,
1) My chiller was down for half a day (luckily I am in SG for that day). Temperature shot up to 32.X degree and by the time I got home, several LPS has melted compare to only one SPS (BN) has peeled. Funny tho, I always thought SPS are the more vulnerable one.
2) During one of the weeks when I was away, the HOB canister that I linked that output to two FR (housing bio-sphere and NP bio-pellets) died. I did not think much and just restart the canister after I get home. Big big mistake. Tonnes of hydrogen sulfide was released into my tank. The whole tank smells like century eggs. Three fishes die almost immediately.
On top of these two stupid incidents, by and large I have a happy month reefing. GHA is almost down to 5%, SPS is growing, zoas are growing more so. Fishes are eating well.
I guess I will spend the next few weeks buying zoas to fill in the gap between SPS and watch both them grow.
Random photos and a feeding video as of 28 Apr 2015 (Before I am away again)

I think T5 is cheaper but LED got more features.
Of course combination of both are the best.
-
If it is physical particles then ur filter wool shall be fine enough to trap them.
Or is it microbubble...
-
Video cannot see. Bro i suggest either u use AC or wash ur filter wool more frequently, depend on the root cause.
-
Bro, can try doctor g anti parasites and anti bacteria medicated fish cavair. I find them useful.
-
Bro, i think is ocean nutrient algae sheet. Most LFS carry them.which LFS did you get from Bro?

initial stage of cycling the tank better not run UN first, else will take longer for bb to colonize, after that running UN no problem liao.

what UV kills depend on the contact time and spectrum, but by and large it will kill any floating virus and bacteria in the water, and yes, it includes good bacteria too.
how you put your UV in sump? is your UV is those exposed UV i.e. can see visible light de?
-
i on my UV 24/7... remember to change the bulb every 6 mths tho..
