Need some help

[ssmtcarlo]

Hay i got a question. I need some oppinions on which powercompact lights are better the
Coralife Lunar Aqualights Compact Fluorescent Strip Lights

or
Dual Satellite Compact Fluorescent Fixtures by current

its for a 30 gal and both put out192 watts wondering if anybodie knows which is better Thanks alot

current fixtures use better reflectors and better bulbs. The dual spectrum bulbs alone r worth going with the current fixture.

for the money put it towards a t5 fixture, PC's are very low end on the fluorescent heirarchies

I had the satellite (CSL then)PC 130W setup, and consider it my 1st mistake, total garbage.

I also notice Acros on your banner, again t-5's would suit you much better, PC's will barely keep any acros alive

one more thing wattage has nothing to do with intensity, maybe some research is in order

250W of metal halides > 500W PC's
