Reflectors

[Mr.Kook]

Ok a lil bit about me. i have a 54 gal corner tanks with a retro fit lighing set up. I am wanting to do a small up grade and get a new reflector. As my tank is doing good and i am wanting to get more corals. But what ine is the question. What is the best relector out there??? Lumen bright or lumen max???

There is no single "best" reflector, each has a purpose. You basically have two different light throwing characteristics, spotlight or floodlight. A spotlight reflector like the LB will direct the light straight down with a tightly focused beam and a floodlight reflector like the LumenArc will disperse the light better but won't have the same intense hotspot of concentrated light. In very simple terms that is the choice.
