pretty sure it's safety glass, and has that stamped on it. If it is, crackers has been on a while and shows no sign of problems with the heat??
-
I would think safety glass would stay together albeit in tiny squares if cracked??, and it would also take a decent splash to crack it, as opposed the thin glass on the bulbs, which would not take alot of thermal shock. anyway, they are up, in use, give me good piece of mind and are alot cheaper than new bulbs.

only needs to happen once, I wasn't going to either, but Cracker got these at a good price, and the possiblility is there that at some time or rather, a fish, or you when your in the tank will accidentally spalsh it. Individual choice, certainly didn't dim the light at all.
-
its for splash protection Chimera, not UV. Splash your hot bulbs and Bang, tank full of glass.

Thanks to Cracker, now have toughened starphire glass on the luminarcs. better safe than sorry.....

each 400w is on for 10hrs, half an hour apart from each other.

This is a stunning coral. It would certainly make a show piece in someones tank, and Skippys right, needs to be in a big tank.

it is not dead. Anemones regularly close up and stay closed for periods of time. Leave him be and he will open. the tenticles on most anemones look green when strunken. Suggest you get on the web and do some research on keeping these animals. they are not easy to keep and you should be prepared before buying one.

popped in to Crackers place tonight. Managed to spill a rum and coke on his carpet, sorry Cracker :oops: His tank is as good as everyone says, stunning peice of reef that looks like its straight out of the wild. Every where you look there is stunning corals, and it's great to know someone with a similar passion for the hobby. Few more rummy nights ahead I think
