I currently have 90 g. reef with a little of everything growing, deltec skimmer, reactor . I have been using 2 400 watt halides along w/ 2 vho, Its about that time to replace and I am leaning towards sometype of hqi hood. many questions, please bare with,.. r just hqi's enuogh or do I also need some type of atenics or vhos. wattage is also a question,, Should I go 2 or 3 250 , I have never cared for a white crisp look or the other hand, extreme blue on the so what would a12k mogul be equivalent to in an hqi.
I would like one I could hang, so far I have been impressed with aquamedic . it has an extremely modern look to it and of course priceing is another atraction. \


any advice would be greatly appreiated, thank you much..
