innate1 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I have a nova orbit pro and have never thought it lived up to it's billing but I'm super excited to see if that will change since I've added the phoenix 20k's. So what do you all use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hmm.. whatever came in my Coralife Aqualight fixture (they are 20K's). When it is time to replace them though, I might possibly go with 14K bulbs for more coral growth. Though, I have noticed my Zoa's are starting to spread nicely with the current bulbs...

+dapettit Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hamilton 250W 1 4K . Ice blue color. Corals really pop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hamilton 14k. I miss the coral growth from my 10k's, but I like the blue tint. 20k is too much IMO and the 14k is just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmanning Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 SPS (South Pacific Sunlight) 14K 400W. We like the 14K's because it has the right amount of blue. We're highly considering adding a 3rd bulb to the set up, the tank is too deep, IMO and there are areas that can use more lighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedelgado Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I like blue and dont care if the coral grows slow so 20k radiums it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooks Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Ever since I've added in my MH's with this bulb I've seen substantial growth in all of my corals, including growth in coralline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
