Lighting advice

[tang daddy]

I wonder how much the philips would be marketed for if they did come out with some for the North America market, I think we all watched the brs clip on the new fixture. It seems like even par throughout the area and perfect colour blending make this light a lot more even to look at and close to replicating t5 or mh.

May I ask why you want to change your lighting?

Is it for sps growth or colouring up your corals or not enough coverage?

I think once we can determine what you're after it's easy to choose the best fixture to suit your needs.

I run all 3 mh t5 and led, will have to say since I've supplemented my lighting with kessils I've noticed some of the acropora colour for the better, definitely gives the pop on sps and Lps.

im guessing the Philips will be a gnote when they arrive here.

so currently I have 3 x 360WE supplemented with 4 x t5. I do not grow sps, and I don't think I will ever take the plunge.

I decided to stop running the t5's as honestly I find it more of an esthetics thing as I cannot seem to find a color blend I like.

running the 3-4 pendants will just be a mess in terms of wires hanging everywhere, so im considering the switch.
