I'm getting ready to purchase some equipment for my 29 gallon tank...
Right now I've got a Coralife 192w fixture with 6700k bulbs...
I'm wondering what the best course of action is.
I'm wanting to purchase the following:
All these are at petsolutions.com
K-2 Viper HQI Clamp-On Light 150watt
#94010002 $219.99
- I wanted something that I could use on tank upgrades in the future. I had also considered purchasing replacement 10k and actintic bulbs for my coralife fixture. Which would be better?
Coralife Super Needle Wheel Skimmer for up to 65g
#96333000 $74.99
- Is this a hang-on-back model? I don't have a sump yet.
Pure-Flo II TFC R.O. System 24GPD
#96376000 $99.99
- Is this a decent R.O. System?
Are those good purchases? Or do you recommend something else?
I'm wanting to keep a decent number of corals and know the RO system will help tremendously, but I'm not sure if the MH light is better than my PC light. Again, I'm wanting to upgrade and I think the clamp on MH light would be much more adaptable than the 36" pc light.
What do you think? Opinions greatly appreciated.
EDIT- As far as metal halide lighting goes... I noticed one light had UV shields on it. Do I need to worry about UV rays when using a metal halide light? Are they dangerous to use? I have a newborn on the way... due in March... I don't want anything dangerous in the house, of course. Not sure if this is something to consider or not...
Thanks!
