After too much research and overthinking my current lighting, do I need to upgrade?I’m left back at the beginning... I’ve asked Dong and Frank- well known members, and now I’d like to spread my question to all of you.
Currently I have very few softies and lps and RBTA in 125 Gallon. Lighting is Marine Current Orbit Pro 2x72” LED...and Dong gave me a dual 48” T5 with ATI bulbs.
Very very slow growth, but with that said everything looks healthy.
Upgrade Options (most to least expensive)
1. 2x 36” Reef Breeders with link $1100
2. 3x AI Hydra 26hd+ $900
3. 6x 54w ATI T5 $750ish
4. 3x Mars Aqua/ Vipar Spectra $300
You can see why Chinese Black Box is so appealing... Can anyone chime in and give me honest opinion based on there experience with any of these lighting options? or do I stick to the Coral Type I have
Thanks !!!!! I am only 1 year in to Reefing so this is all new territory and I don’t have the $ to waste, but I know I need to take next step in my game.
