I went with Leds years ago and never looked back I recently got the nerve to throw a metal halide on my tank and I'm glad I did so now I'm running
1) 250 watt Phoenix 14k
2) diy led blues and uv's panels I built (20) royal blue 3watts chips , (18) uv 3 watts chips ,(2) pink 3watt chips
2) 48" ati blue plus t5s
2) 48" ati pure actinic
I'm hoping for better growth and better color ..
I used to run
Two reef breeders knock off led setups I built myself by using their color layouts and a mix of my own...whites...blues...uv...limes...pinks...greens...reds...
2) 48" ati blue plus
1) 48" ati purple plus
1) 48" ati coral plus
..I had great growth with the old setup but you can't beat the shimmer of the metal halide and proven growth and now the color of the tank is the best I have ever seen it ...only time will tell to see what happens.
Thanks Roger for the halide bulb and your help with bulb layout.
