hi everyone, i am gonna get two T5HOs to supplement my 150watt MH over my tank but i have a few questions.
-im gonna get a workhorse ballast. do i need to get special sockets for the workhorse cause its instant start. are these sockets included in the icecap endcaps (which are program start?)or do you put them in?
-which bulb combo should i go with: 2 UVL super actinic (best pure actinic PAR) or two ATI aquablue plus (best blue PAR, and higher than the pure actinic). if the pure actinic and my 150watt phoenix 14K will be enough to have any coral i will go with them. if you think i should have the aquablue and MH to have any coral then let me know. i would like to have the pure actinic more, but growth and PAR is more important so aquablue might be better. (i have a 36 gallon)
thanks for any help
