Need Help With Lamp Selection

Postby Bierboy » June 16th, 2011, 1:19 pm

What would you get from here? They have free shipping and are an in state company. I'd like to keep my dollars in state if possible plus they are an RDO sponsor.

This is going over 1/2 of a 125 with mostly LPS and a few SPS.

Here is what I have now.

3 – ATI Blue Plus

1 – ATI 12000K Aquablue

1 – GE 6500K Daylight

1 – KZ Fiji Purple.

I have purchased fish from their Live Aquaria branch, and I have been very pleased.

I may do that for supplemental lighting in the future, but for now I have a perfectly good t-5 system.

I'm a long time customer of the good Drs for specific livestock, drygoods and stuff for the other critters (dogs cats). Never ever had an issue with them and always been very happy with the service. /waits for fallout from the B&M owner members on the board. As far as the lighting, I've always used Coralife for what little I've had to use that type of light.
