Tony,

What made you decide on using the AI for lighting? Could you have used 1 Radion as opposed to 2 AIs?

I figured i was better off im also all mac which i was seeing the radion is not compatible yet. Double the coverage hopefully no dark spots at all :biggrin:

im going to be ordering dry rock for my tank soon what does everybody think is the best place to order from.

i was think from what thirty5 said reefrocks.net but was wondering which type is the best or if there is a better site with better rock. anyone with any suggestion would be great.

im thinking of ordering 50lbs at a time to get different pieces to get the aquascape i like...

im thinking the 50lb box of rock for 89.99 and free shipping sounds good. any comments on the rock you get?

 

[Tonyscoots84]

so i ordered rock from reefrocks.net and was really surprised on the level of customer service. i placed the order last night and got a email the same night with steve asking me what i was looking to accomplish in my tank. he asked me what size my tank was and what i was looking to do. so i told him a 60 gallon cube and i was looking to do a huge mountain leaning towards the back with a pillar in the front left somewhere. then i get an email stating that hes throwing in extra lbs of rock and a free designed pillar. thats great what great customer service. the rock is expected to be here by the 18th and free shipping cant beat it :biggrin:
