The color seems good but I was wondering if I could get better colors out of my recordias and Zoas. The Coral colors seem dull in my tank compared.


Should I

Go white-er with my halides and blue-er with my Compacts?
Go BLue-er with my halides and white-er with my compacts?
Or just Stay with what I got?
Another option for you is to look at the cost of replacing the bulbs. Look also at the cost of replacing them every 9 months.
Compare this to the cost of upgrading to an LED system. see www.fish-street.com which is the least expensive LED system I am aware of.
LED make ricordia, zoas and every other florescent coral simply pop out at you.
