    Default 100 gal Actinic

    I just picked up an IceCap 660 Ballast. I want to use it for just actinics so far im leaning toward 3-5' VHO Super Actinic or 4-4'VHO Super Actinic. Anyone else have a suggestion before i buy any endcaps or know where some are cheap LMK. I really would like every1's opinion on this. Thanks for taking the time to read!

    Jus remember when ou run T5's on the IC ballast it overdrives them and they will not look as purple but will flourece the corals nicely. If I remember correctly the 54w T5's are run at about 80w or so.
