I am a previous reef keeper just now getting back into the hobby after a 6 year break. I am using my "old" setup which is a 50 breeder tank (36" long) with an Ice Cap 660 ballast.
My question is: should I convert from the VHO bulbs (4 bulbs total) to T5? What are the benefits? Lower bulb costs? Lower power costs? Longer life? Better output?
If I make the change, can I use my Ice Cap? How many bulbs should I run...4? What kind of bulbs?
Sorry for all of the questions but it seems like everyone has made the move from VHO except for me...
Thanks again for the help!
