    What Fish will go with what?

    You might have a problem with the damsel. Depending on the type and size, they get pretty aggressive the larger they are. My opinion is that damsels are a fools fish. Cheap and look great when they are young, but get ugly and mean when old. Also, your clown could be somewhat aggressive if it...

    What is your favorite fish/invert?

    My favorite fish would be the grey or koran angel I have. Believe it or not, they get along and the grey, even though not much color, has beautiful markings.

    Anyone have info on the SunSeeker Ballast

    I am asking if anyone had or still has a SunSeeker VHO ballast. I would like to know quality issues. Does it compare to IceCap? The price is cheaper, but from what I can see it doesn't operate the same amount of watts or number of bulbs. But this would be my first upgrade out of regular...

    How many watts are needed for corals anemones?

    Well, there lies another problem. I am probably going to have to set up a second tank because I don't think the large angels I have will live with polyps, possibly the anemones because I do have a few clowns. But my grey and koran already pick at my fake stuff. So to answer your question, yes...

    I need watts. Any kind of lighting system, MH, VHO, PC or T5. As long as it has watts. No canopy so a fixture is preferred, however I can always build a canopy if the right price is there for the retro. Forgot to mention, I live in Midwest, but am willing to travel somewhat or pay for...

    Can anyone give anykind of input on the Odyssea brand lighting?

    I am looking to buy an Odyssea power compact lighting system but I haven't heard much about that brand. Anyone out there with one that can tell me if they are reliable or not. The price and watts on this one beats out Orbit by a lot. Thanks for any input.

    Has anyone had problems with Odyssea lighting before?

    I am looking to purchase an Odyssea power compact light but I am worried because I actually haven't heard much about this brand before. The price is right, the watts are right for what I am looking for. $200 for 322 watt 60" with lunar lights, beats Orbit I think. Let me know your opinion...

    I need a 60" light fixture or just Ballast

    I have an irregular 120 gal tank that is 60" long. I am looking for any kind of lighting system. I have been looking at a VHO retro fit kit or the actual Orbit system with lunar lights. If anyone can help me out on the retro with a quality ballast or if anyone has a complete setup please reply.

    which ballast for vho?

    I personally don't have one but the research I have been doing points to the IceCap 660, of course this does depend on the size of your tank but this seems to be the most versatile, price is $150-$175.

    Help with new lighting on 60" tank

    I have a 120gal tank that is 60" across. I know the Orbit makes a 60" power compact but do I really need to spend that much money just to get enough watts for soft corals and anemones. I can't ever find anything used in this size. I am not an electrician, could I retro fit my current...
