HI all,
I am very new to reefing having just gotten a 15 gallon cube set up and going. I am bitten by the bug however and already looking to plan my next tank. We probably wouldn't attempt it for about a year but I am trying to do due diligence on research. We are probably going to be looking at either a 40 breeder or 75 gallon. I have seen the Popbloom lights talked about a lot of places. I am curious about people's experience with them. Have you had good luck growing corals with them? Are they enough to dip into LPS, and possibly some easy SPS? Would 2 Rl60 on a 40 breeder or 3 on a 75 gallon work or would we need the Rl90? Are they decent quality or should we bite the bullet and go higher end?
 
I've been using the popbloom rl90 since January, its been growing my corals just fine, its a good light. I don't like the app at all but thats just a preference, the light itself is fine, not too blue which I don't like deep blue.

I use a 150 watt light on my 40 breeder, but if I had to go popbloom I would put 2 x rl90
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?
