I'm getting ready to build out my new tank and have been all over the place w/ lighting. Years ago I ran 2x250 SE XM/Mag ballast MH w/ VHOs and loved the color. I kind of want to get back that. Sadly XM is gone. I've done the LED thing(radions and then illumagics) and I just don't think the Kessil Ap9x and t5s or OR3s will give me what I'm looking for. I've got a 36x24x20 Reef Savvy(euro braced), I will be running a canopy. Do the reefbrite fixtures run any cooler than say the hamilton caymans? I'm thinking 2x250DE HQI or does anyone think I could get away w/ 150/175s? I do plan on keeping SPS mostly in the upper 1/3 of the tank. Any opinions or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
