R-3 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Are you gonna run actinics for supplementation Frank?? I would highly recommend 14k Phoenix bulbs. I am running them and love them with a pair or URI Super Actinics. I think Calvin and several others run them too! If I had a old one I would let ya borrow one but I just got these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I second the 14k pheonix but if you decide not to run actinics I would definately consider the 20k Ushios. I run them over the display and have been very, very happy with their performance! Garrett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 I have actinics but they are pc it is an enclosed hood ... So that is why I want to try one out before I buy not sure how well the pc will effect it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewie Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I have a Phoenix 14k you can have. It's over a year old, but it will give you an idea of what you're looking for. I think you'll like it. I'll leave it @ the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
