What lamp do you run for your halides?
And the reflector?

For keeping sps, call me old school but IMO T5's and halides are still the way to go. Then supliment with LED's as the pop that you get from Reef Brite LED's is just out of this world and WAY better than any other LED that we have ever tried.

Here are a couple tank shots from Hookup in Ottawa. He posts on RC and on our local forum, but not here so much so I will post them up.

Here is a true super man montipora (not the indo variety)



Here is the same piece when the Reef Brites are on:


I can post some more of Hookups pics up if you would like. He has a pretty insanely nice tank. He runs an 10 lamp ATI power module and these pics were taken with a single 48" regular Reef Brite added on, not even the XHO!

We are planning on modding his existing fixture by removing the 2 lamps that are controlled by the one plug and mounting some Reef Brites in their place so as to maintain the super sleak look of the fixture.... Not sure if it will work but we will see.
