Two Quick Questions
VHO retro kit is gonna set me back about $350
(icecap 660 + 4 36" bulbs and hardware)
2 Twin 96w PC kits are about $275( minus bulbs, I think)
Which would be best for a 45 high that is screaming for LPS corals? Both yeild about the same wattage, how bout light? The ads say Pcs yeild watt for watt twice as much lux as 110 VHOs... So, is 220w PC as good as 440w VHO?
Anybody else use a header on a powerhead to spread out water flow over a larger area?
I put a 10" header on a MJ400 near the top of my tank and pointed the jets at about75 degree angle and that seems to realy move the water alot better than the jet just the powerhead put out.
