T5 mH comparison

In this link NEWSCHOOL04 has 2 tanks on one system with both lighting systems. A MH over a 30 cube and T5 over the 75 all SPS clams.
Goto the 3rd thumbnail pick down and click on it to enlarge pic.
It is at the beginning of the thread.
What do you think of the comparison? Interesting?

Alot of forums with PHP codes are register only. I belong to 14 boards and am a member of the ALA, ACA, CMAS, and I regulary post at TFH, RC, AC, and recently REEFLAND. I also Moderate at Uberfrags. If the register block is a problem let me know and I will try to have NEWSCHOOL post the pics here.

It is very cool to see how the light penetrates each tank equally by looking at it. I will see if he has anyway of posting par and lux/lumen readings from each tank at the bottom. There are alot of T5 discussions but this pic makes things more interesting to talk about.
Thanks Rich

Why don't you post the pictures and review here versus posting a link that the general public cannot view without boosting registration at another forum.

He thumbnailed his pics and they blow back up when you click on them. I am not sure how to copy those, can you copy them?

Yes. Open two windows. One will be the POst Reply for this thread and the other will be the URL to the picture. When you click on the Manager Attachments button here while posting a reply, you can paste the URL to the image in the window and it will post the picture here.

It doesn't blow up to full size so you can't see alot of the deatil of the light penetration from the pic but maybe you get the idea.
