    Metal halide wattage recommendations

    I think electronic ballasts will be fine for now. The Phoenix bulbs aren't being made anymore, what's the go to bulb of the ones still produced?

    Metal halide wattage recommendations

    Thank you all for the tips. I will take them to heart. Are DE bulbs as available as SE? I just got Giesemann's invoice and implementing this light will cost me ~$5,600, so now I am back at square 1.

    Metal halide wattage recommendations

    I won't be too hasty buying things. I still need a tank. Right now I'm crunching some numbers on the whole thing. I might post another thread for some other recommendations since I've been out of the hobby for the past few years.

    Metal halide wattage recommendations

    I was planning on going with 3 of the Reefbrite MH/LED hybrid fixtures since they seem to be the last man standing, but I just got an email from Giesemann saying they're still making the Spectra. It's pretty difficult to source ballasts. Not sure if there's some commercial lighting places or...

    Metal halide wattage recommendations

    I am planning a new build and have decided to go with a MH system. The new tank will be 72x30x30, and I'd like to know which wattage would be able to punch all the way to the bottom. The tank is going to be SPS only.

    Kayvon's rebirth tank

    I decided there wasn’t enough flow in my tank and wanted to repurpose my other flow pumps, so I added a Tunze Stream 3. This thing weighs a ton. Built like a cannon. This is going to give the area behind the rocks a push. I only have it around 30%. Any higher starts to push my euphylia at the...

    Kayvon's rebirth tank

    Got a few from @scchase but the majority came from POTO and Thirstysreef. POTO has an auction platform called reefnbid.com and thirstys has auctions on ebay.

    Power of the Sun.

    I use an 8 bulb t5 (ATI powermodule) with supplemental Reefbrite LED. It has a built in dimmer, but I never dim my T5's. I just run them 100% for about 10 hours and ramp my LEDs. I think that too much control over lighting leads to over tweaking and worse coral growth since they are constantly...
