10 Points Best Answer?
I have a 210 Gallon Reef Tank that I’m currently setting up. I have a 30 Gallon Sump and a 30 Gallon Refugium. I know the common rule is 3-5 watts x gallon. However i have seen 180 Gallon tank with the Nova T5 fixture that has all types of coral growing fine. I’m trying to figure out what the huge advantage of going with the Higher Watts vs Lower Watts. There is a huge difference in price but as far as the long run.. I don’t know.. I know my electric bill will be much less going with the T5’s. Whats your opinion and why?
Thanks

Because you’d be well over the rule of “2 watts per gallon”. And you know the price of that other 1134W light?
I don’t know for sure, this is your choice, I’m just saying that the price is a pretty HUGE difference and you’d be well over the “2W per gallon” rule.
Good Luck on your Choice!

Diva $5.71 Although traces of her synthpop roots certainly showed through, Annie Lennox’s solo debut, Diva, made it abundantly clear that her new material would veer away from gender-bending robotics of the early Eurythmics sound and continue toward the more emotionally grounded soul of later releases. On Diva, Lennox infuses each song with tenderly perceptive lyrics, hypnotic rhythms, and irresistibly soul… |
