Currently I am running a 48" Coralife Aqualight Pro w/2-150MH over a 75g "garden" tank. The primary inhabitants are a Clam, Anenome, and a gaining collection of SPS. Because I have supplemental Actinics,(2-96W PC). I do not see a need to go up in Kelvin because from my research 10K still is grows the best. However I would be open to another Kelvin rating, to up the blue in color.
Since this will be my first bulb replacement, should I stick with the stock bulb 10k, (Aqualine?) or has anyone had better results with any of the others listed here taken from the Marine Depot offerings?
Please note, I am gaining more intrest in SPS and plan on focusing on them more. So I would like that to be the major consideration.
Marine Depot listings:
10,000K Ushio HQI
Double-Ended Metal Halide Bulb
10,000K Aqualine HQI
Double-Ended Metal Halide Bulb
10,000K IceCap HQI
