anyone run coralife pc fixtures?
 

the ones in particular im talking about are the 4x55 watt (48") with the moonlight's. wanna know how the tank looked, what grew what didnt grow etc.

You mean the 4X65W Lunar Aqualight? I have one kicking around that isn't in use right now that was perfect for my 50... You'll be able to grow anything soft... and it's a nice fixture... grows good corraline because it's not too bright... but if you want to do anything more than say some of the less light demanding LPS then I would get the Lunar Aqualight Pro with the 150W hqi lights in it...

Agree. If you plan on doing a reef tank, skip the "wasting of money steps" & go to the "upgrade" step right away. Trust the rest of us when we state that it'll save you hundreds of dollars in the next year or two. I went through the NO, T5, PC phases before getting MH & now I kick myself for wasting all that time & $$. Like we keep posting, learn from our mistake. However, if you're planning on doing fish, just go with NO since the fish don't need an expensive lighting sys anyways.

I just obtained one used and it is a very nice light but its in my FOWLR tank with a few tree corals and mushrooms. I would agree that if you want a reef go for MH.

ok- the aqualight pro with the pc and MH bulbs- do the bulbs last very long as far as MH's go or are there much better options out there for the cost?

Same as any other MH bulbs... 12 - 18 months.... same with the PC bulbs in that same fixture....

I've a 65w coralife fixture on my 10g right now. I want to move into a MH though I am thinking.

On a 10G? What are you planning on cooking? :razz: :mrgreen:
