Starphire or Low Iron Glass

[chanbi]

Hi, just wonder whether anyone with starphire or Low Iron glass feel any diff compare with normal glass? Should be less greeny but coral/fish colour any diff?

Still thinking whether it is worth it to invest in starphire...

You can also consider crystal glass. No difference in colour of corals, just better clarity and less distortion. Mine used to be normal glass 8mm thick, but my current crystal glass is 10mm thick and appears to be much clearer. Loving it.

heh ever consider acrylic too? All have pros and cons la

The only diff will be the lack of a green tinge caused by Fe2+ ions embeded in normal glass. However, these special types of glass cost much more and should only be got when one has money to spare. Don't skimp of other more vital things such as a good skimmer just to get this special glass if you are tight on your budget.
