Alve's tank today, thanks to BAR!

[Apon]

looks good! Is that a blue hammer? or the colors off the the photos?

Arnold, when Jeremy was at my house a couple weeks ago he told me it is a blue hammer.

I had never heard that a blue hammer exists and always thought that it was a green hammer with not so much green in it

What kind material did you use for your Lighting stand on your frag tank?
What kind of lighting and how many watts on that frag tank?

 

[alve]

I used 3/4" PVC pipe, elbows, T's and end caps for the lighting stand and spray painted it black. The lighting on the frag tank is an Icecap ballast and pendant with a 250W DE 14k Phoenix Bulb

What does it mean by "pendant"?

Neato, a blue hammer! I thought the color in the photo was off too. ;D Where did you find that Aldie?

nanocube-boy, the pendant is the light fixture with reflector that holds the bulb:

Lyn, I bought this one about 8 years ago at a LFS in Los Angeles. It was more than double the size of what I have now when I upgrade to a 156g last year. I put some frags up on DBTC last year but had it marked as Green Hammer and I believe only one person was interested. A couple months ago I brought a piece with about 15 heads to Atlantis and did a trade.

I sure hope you got the Blue hammer trade instead of the green hammer trade.

 

[alve]

Nope, at that time I had never even heard of the existence of a blue hammer so I told him I had a not so very green "green hammer"...

Thanks Patchin!

Nanocube-boy, I use an Olympus Stylus 1030SW which works underwater.
