Benefits of fast growing cheato?

[Delphinus]

The only thing I can think of is that it's drawing nutrients up slower than it would be if it was growing faster. In the end it's all about import and export rates. If you're not seeing a buildup then it's probably OK. If you are seeing a buildup then there's a case to be made for wanting it faster.

Why that one particular bulb?

Yah I thought about that too. I would always have my fuge full either way, I just wouldn't have to trim it as much. The actual amount retained in the fuge would remain the same, that is once I have filled the compartment to begin with.

Why that particulart bulb? I found this.... http://melevsreef.com/fuge_bulb.html
and it would appear to be the best choice.
