    150w or 250w HQI for my Solana

    yeah idd definatly go with 250 im kicking myself for not going with 250 over mine everything in my cube is doing good but it would make it alot easier when placing corals if i had a 250 wouldnt have to worry about if its getting enough light.

    ZEOvite....good or not so good?

    yeah ive gotten on zeovit.com and talked with alexander on there and it seems like a good system for me it really wouldnt cost much typically he was saying per 100gal. it costs roughly $15 a month but mines only around 50 total so thats really not too bad it just seems like the initial setup of...

    Say Something Bad

    i have the 24" version with 4 T5s and 150w halide and i love it wish i had gone with the 250w but as for how the fixture works its awsome in my opinion, but if you have a canopy thats big enough to put retro kit or hang lumenarcs in then that would probably be cheaper...

    clams moving all over....

    yeah i agree that petco doesnt have the means to keep a clam happy and healthy definatly if they want to do such need to get more appropriate lighting but that is there deal cant really make a store do something they dont want to....but definatly a good deal on a nice looking clam..
