Cree separates their LEDs into bins (and sub-bins) that you can specify to obtain a very specific wavelength of light. I have been looking into this as well for close to a year, and the price has been still a little bit more than I wanted to spend; and I have not been able to nail down the actual nu...

It has a good sized bulb... without pulling it up, I dont know how much the root system has developed. There was some small roots growing when I planted it a few months ago. It bloomed maybe a month ago, and then the leaves started dying... The bit of the bulb that is above the substrate, still look...

Yes. By bloomed I meant producing a flower(s). For some reason, I have always liked these plants a lot. The A.

I absolutely love the way these fish look.
I have never seen them in my LFSs though. Given the opportunity, I would love to have a school of them.

Good Luck Jim! Let us know how you do with them.

Smaller (and transparent) component in the tank itself? With my tanks having the back glass painted black, I have just ma...
