To keep the record straight . It all depends on what sps you want to grow. Here is a pic of my old 75g with 4 vhos, no sump, prism pro skimmer, and 3 maxi jet 1200's



as you can see they are mostly montiporas but i also had a birdsnest and others that did very well. So it comes down to whether you want to spend the money to upgrade or work with what you've got

An alternative that can cost less than an aqualight pro fixture would be two 36" Tek fixtures from sunlight supply. Might even be higher quality build, too, and definately much more light output than 150w's. May even be equal to 250's, or even more powerful...

I don't know, but those aqualight pro fixtures seem a little overpriced to me, especially since I've heard various people complain about the quality of the included MH bulbs.

I'm getting an Aqualight PRO 250s and ff the recommendation of Anthony (Sea Horse Fanatic),I'll be changing the bulbs to Geisemann 13000k.
I'm also planning to use a Tunze Wavebox or put WAVY Seas on the return. I hope this will be adequate for circulation and lighting.
