Nuvo 8 aquarium opinions

Anybody remember the pricing at Wai's and Pisces??

[asylumdown]

Wai's was between 200 and 300. Sorry I don't remember more specifically. I had a $200 limit that day, so I stopped listening after the first number

dont remember exact number. i bought mine on sale, and i definitely didnt spend over $200 on mine.

I just got home from Pisces and the Nuvo8 is $240. The Nuvo16 is regular $399 but on sale for $299. I would love to get the Nuvo16 but the space I want the tank for just wouldn't be able to accomodate it. Maybe I will wait for a sale on the Nuvo8...

Would an AI Sol or Vega be overkill (actually, I know it will be overkill lol)? I want a good light that I can use on my big tank once I move into my house in about a year. I feel like the nano would obviously be the best choice for this tank but it seems like a waste if I won't be able to use it on my future tank. Can I dial down a Sol or Vega enough to make it an 'OK' lighting fixture for a Nuvo8??

funny you ask. i use an AI nano on mine. i had the stock light on it, and it worked well for what i had it in. but i do notice a difference after switching to the AI. zoas are now starting to multiply, when they weren't before. i have it dialed down to about 30% intensity. and its plenty bright.

I think its just over 250, pisces has the 16 on sale right now
