: 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

: 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.?
