OK, here's the deal I have since scrapped my idea of tossing my 80 watt NO light fixture for my new 220 watt VHO system. I said why not use both? I couldn't decide on what bulbs to use with just the vho so what do
i do now? I have read read read the FAQ's on actinic lighting and all I can get is that they are more for asthetics with some purpose of helping with photosynthesis.
So this is my thought on the matter if full-spectrum bulbs 6500-10,000 help more for actually growing corals wouldn't it be better to run two full spectrum bulbs in the VHO fixture (220 watts full spectrum) and run two actinic bulbs in the NO fixture (80 watts actinic)
If I am correct in my thinking than this should work, should I run 48"
1) 6500k VHO
1) 10,000k VHO
1) True actinic NO-40w
