So all I have now is a BioCube 29.

I already did the Nanotuners 3X36 watt Power Compact upgrade but was wondering if 4X 18 watt HO T-5's would be brighter/better for the corals.

Any thougts or ideas?

I'm not having any problems but I like the color options of the t-5.

Hey Kyle. This is Ivan - we did a group buy a long time back with Caferacermike, and I bought your sump. What happened to your tank??? It was soo sweet! I think it was a 50? Sorry for the tangent!

It was a 100 then 22 then 33 then 70 (which I think you saw in my office) and now a 29. Just kept changing an am really happy now but instead of changing tanks am looking at changing the lights around. Any suggestions? It's time to change the bulbs so if I'm going to do anything it will need to be now.

Cool! Sad to think I missed the sale you must've had at some point! I think you should go with the T-5s... Or you could just go solar. Mike's (Txreefer) build thread is awesome...
