I just upgraded my lighting over my 135 gallon, 6 foot long 2 foot high saltwater reef tank that is loaded with numerous corals and fish. Pretty happy with the new metal halides.
I know a couple other Alleyites have posted about owning reef tanks in the past so I thought I'd share.
I just added three 250 watt metal halide bulbs, Coralview Reeflux 12K spectrum over the six foot long tank which adds a nice even crisp white light with a blue actinic tint.
Yeah, I grow coral rocks as a hobby.
And you though Vipers were expensive, in the last 15 years I've spent 1/2 a used Gen I / II viper on this tank.
