Yeah, I forgot to mention that I am running a 150watt MH and 2 24" T5's with actinics.

Until proven otherwise I am blaming my whole SPS crash on the Pistol Shrimp!!!!

Holy cr@p!! That's some serious fire power for such a small tank. You might have actualy burned your SPS with that much light.

No, I don't believe I did. I know people that have put a 250 over a 29! THAT is serious.

Wow! Thats crazy!! Ive read however (since I cant have hard corals of my own) that with really bright set ups, you often have to slowly acclimatize the corals to the brighter light after having been in the dark environment of the LFS. Kinda like orchids!! lol Are you a member of any reef forums?
