After I upgraded to a 400 watt MH and before I modified my MH reflector I had the whole courtyard lit up like it was Christmas. Neighbors were wondering what was going on in my condo!

hahaha you should see my bedroom ! If your looking outside my room just looks like this super bright glow .. and cause its a 20k bulb it looks blueish ... haha it's sooo noticable, it would on the other hand be funny if someone came by and asked me what I was up to... I'd just take them upstairs and show them !

I agree, if you just want corals... and don't care really about the SPS thing yet then some softies and LPS will definitely be good for you. T5 lighting is really good from what I hear.. no first hand experience... and as for finding T5 online I am not too sure where to look.

Can any zoo's be kept with what is either going to work out to be: 3.5 wpg (coralife) or 4.32 (t-5)?

I think the costs of the t-5's is just going to be too much. It would be alot easier if we lived in the states where there is actually competitive sites.
So most likely i will be going with the coralife.

Thanks
Steve

You will have no problem keeping any zoos you can find with either of those fixtures.

What kind of corals could i house with this over my 75 gallon? Current inhabitants are 1 - Coral banded shrimp 1 - chocolate chip star (probably trouble with some corals) 1 - peppermint shrimp 2 - black percs 1 - bicolor angel 1 - emerald crab (possible trouble as well?)

If anything i probably could get rid of the CC starfish but the emerald crab would be a real pain.

Let me know

Thanks

for that price you can buy my 72'' pc unit with 5 lunar lights. It is in great shape.

Have you tried a quote on the fixtures from Ocean Aquatics or Saltwater Connection?
