I am not new to the reefing hobby, but it has been ten years since I’ve kept a system. I figure i will hang out in the forums and learn about all of the new technology .

I always error on the side of being too much and having to mount it higher or tune it down over being under sized and not having enough light after just spending the money on a fixture.

That's my question....

My sump is only about 16"x16"x12"deep. The 380 says its recommended size is 24"x24" with 3' penetration. The H160 says recommended(by BRS) 18"x18".

Talking with someone on R2R, they said that h80 should be for anything 8"x8" or under, the h160 should be for anything 14"x14" or under. Anything over would be the H380

So I dont want to buy the H160,and it not have the power I need. Dont want to buy the H380, and it be too much power. It's a gamble so to say, just trying to do some research before the plunge

Krazie- what size is your refugium?

Adam- that is good to know.
My refugium is about 20 gallons. I have to mount the light fairly high as it is tons of light for my fuge.

Did a lot of reading on line. The chemical makeup is the same (calcium, mag, etc) and it’s packaged the same.

I really like Liveaquaria salt! Plus if you get it on sale and use additional coupons they run regularly you can get it for less than $40 for a 200 g box! (I bought 3 boxes for $30 each) Plus it’s actually Fritz salt, which has had a lot if good feedback from several well respected people on this forum and the internet. I highly recommend it!

today is opening day for Rustys new location in bountiful he may some deals on stuff as part of this soft opening.  All of the lfs will have crews available  but few of them run specials from time to time. If you make it down to Orem aquatic evolution has packages all the time.

Hi everyone.  After a long break from the hobby, I'm gathering a few things for a new tank.  Does anyone have an AI vega they could sell?  Blue or color version.  A controller or director would be nice too but not necessary.
