Wayne you need to get out of that closet you live in.. These lights have been out ohhhh
about a month or so other than some test lamps. How are you going to get anything in that
time. Where does it say anything about being on his tank for years. Again, as usually, you
never read the dam article. Again, Wayne, talking out of his butt end. In the last year
you are becoming more and more sick with you ass'9 remarks and comments. Sorry. You don't
really help all that much anymore you just like arguing .

You must have missed this

"Joy Meadows mentioned in a recent conversation that she had discontinued use of a chiller
after replacing her metal halide lamps with a Solaris lighting system..Ms. Meadows is no
stranger to reef aquaria, as those who know her can attest. "

Being that she is a well know coral farmer I kinda' thing she knows what she is doing and
much more so than you Wayne by a long shot..just so yah know.

Some people in this hobby, unlike you, take their own time and spend their own money
testing things for us, so we know how they work or what they do. Then they write it up,
so maybe one can maybe learn something about. it and make a choose. Both Danna and Sanjay
have test most of the bulbs and reflectors in this hobby for us. It should be obvious, to
anyone with common sense, that a person could never test all the bulbs and lighting
systems that are out on their own tank for results. They tell us what that do and how
they work and what we might expect. It is called learning Wayne, from others, something
you know little about. Wayne, when it comes to understanding light and light over a reef
tank or a reef and the long term captive care of corals with lighting fixtures, you could
not hold a candle to Danna Riddle........just so you know.

Where are your tanks pics ? Why don't you give us some to look at.?
