What do most of you prefer? I'm new to the hobby and looking to start my second tank I'm looking for something around 75 gallons I already have a 400 and 600 watt dimmable metal halide and a 4ft x 2ft 4 bulb t5ho fixture both just need bulbs so I'm wondering should I use one of these lights or just buy a new led? Is it really worth the extra loot for the led?
Id like a mixed reef sps and lps don't care much for fish although I will have a few. I appreciate any opinions you guys may have for me =)
