So at MACNA I picked up 2 new USHIO bulbs and I am blown away by them...I had always used Coralvue and was very hesitant to shift and try something new becasue the Coralvues were working nice and had used them for about the last 7-8 years...
I listened to Sanjay talk at MACNA and he had stated that he used the same ballast I have and had shown great results with the ICECAP 400W electronic ballast and the USHIO 12k bulb...so I took the plunge and I have not been dissappointed, my coral growth and color has been awesome...and the bulbs have only been on the tank for about 2 months and I noticed a difference after a week!
The only sad part is I will not get to watch the stuff grow out for a year to see the real effect of the new bulbs as I am going to be tearing down the tank in the next month or two for an impending move this summer...
Anyone else like these bulbs? I am sad i did not take the leap sooner...
