eh like that you should just publish a "Idiot's Guide to Reefing". sure get rich one! :lol:

qazwer - SPS refers to "Small-polyped-stony" corals. The hardest type to keep but with the nicest colours. FOWLR means "Fish-only-with-live-rocks", ie a tank without corals, only fish.

go check out AT's reference list for terms you are not familiar with:

Be teachable always, nobody has a monopoly on wisdom. But learn to distinguish "fact" from "opinion".

Which brand of T5HO has "True Actinic"???? :ph34r:

I used Aquaz actinic but it is "blue" when compared to my true actinic FL that give "Purple Blue" which actually make the coral to fluorescence most ;)

I am not sure about the claims by other brands but I trust only the former ATI and DD when comes to T5 HO. ;)
