I've heard that, but all my corals liked the 100% and would have liked more.

Yeah, but your tank was SPS dominant and they were used to 400 watt Radions. I don't think the Sol touches that. The Hydra 52 I think do.

Agreed, but I did have several LPS as well, all light sucking monsters!!

My opinion is that these corals live a couple feet under water in the equatorial sun. We can't over do lighting We can add too much too fast, but not too much.

I have 3 SOLs on my 150 gal. Very similar settings to Myka's client's light settings. It's an sps dominant tank.
