Feed back on light rack.

What do you think of my three 400w MH rack? It will also house 4 VHO attincs. I know it looks naft now but it will have a open top canopy soon. These lights have been on my tank a month now.

Have you tried the Reefflux 10K? I put one on the front hood along with a coralvue 10K, and the coralvue looks almost yellow compared to it.

Well, then, that makes my feedback easy! I think you should build your canopy!

Very nice skeleton and working parts, IMHO... I like a mix of light colors anyway...
