i dont see the logic there.

my metal halides cost me over 75 dollars per month to run. 5 months and that pays for an additional sol fixture

Mine cost less than half that. And I get to make monthly payments. The logic is I may be able to come up with the 1500 to equip the tank with 3 units, not 1900. Don't have it.

We don't need name calling. Thanks.

Three units should work just fine, based on Dez' success. My rock/coral area is about the same as his, and he's fine with three.
And I do think the SOLs are better lights at a better price. They put out more light. I don't need, no, want all the stuff radion owners think is cool, I need light that grows coral and gives the same color as my MH.
