I had a ca reactor on it, but between constant issues with the CO2 (leaks), and the softies lower demand, I removed the reactor, and just dose with Randy's two part formula now. Ca demand is definately lower with softies.

As for the MH, I started with 400 watters (thinking I needed them for the depth) and the softies HATED them. Swapped them out for 250 watters, and everything is much happier. They are supplemented with 2 Icecap 660's, one driving 4 x 4' bulbs, the other driving 4 x 3' bulbs (840 watts total, mainly actinics).

from anguswu's thread:

I use two 24W T5 actinic+ from 12pm to 12am, one 20000K 150W HQI from 3pm to 11pm, and one 14000K 150W HQI from 16:30 to 19:30. And 4 blue LED light for other time. Most of the picture above is under 20000K HQI.
