Got some extra money in the fish tank budget. I'm looking to either swap out the other two pc bulbs with 2 more panorama pros or should I get a controller? I already have 1 panorama pro in addition to the pcs ( which there replacement date is about 4 months away). I just don't know which direction to go?
Help and thanks for the the advice and would one of the bod send me a pm about renewing or reactivating my membership?

Depends. What equipment do you need to control.

Reefer, Honestly, if it were me, I would be ditching those PC lights faster than anything else. they just dont put out their worth in my opinion. As for a controller instead, I love having mine. while it only controls the lights so far (and some fans), it does serve a good monitoring purpose in that I can instantly see a few things on my tank. The ability for them to control more is a good aspect though.

Basically I want to control the lights an pumps and heaters. It's a simple tank but I an making sure that I get items that will be useful when I upgrade, once I get into a med school and won't have to move for a while.
