Very nice setup, MEA.

Looks like that you're getting good light to the bottom even when you're pointing the lights at an angle.

just looking at this setup bring an idea for a DIY light. Having the pedestal setup on both sides with a horizontal bar connecting the two pedestals with the horizontal bar housing about 5 or 6 CFLs pointing to the tank. That would look neat too.

About the inverts in the bare bottom tank with mosses, I'd be careful MEA. I had 3 Caridina Japonica (Amano) shrimps in a bare bottom tanks with mosses and Riccia. I moved them there as one of them had lots of eggs. I was shocked and saddenned to find that they died the next morning. Not sure what caused it. Still feeling bad about it after 2 months. Should have left them in their old tank. :-(

I hope others here can provide some insight to avoid any mishaps.

Good Luck with your transition.

regards,
Ravi

Good to hear that the shrimp are doing well, MEA.

Are you making sure that you're taking the reading around the same time of the day, MEA?

The tank looks very nice MEA. Congratulations. Wish I had your aquatic-thumb!
