The good thing about the Maristar is SLS lowered its MAP pricing on it and also lowered many of its ballast pricing making it more affordable than...
Decent advice again but WPG? Really? I have about 3.5WPG over my 180, with SPS more than 2/3rds the way down and a maxima maybe 4 inches off the...
Not many "good" brands make 18"ers... I take it this is for a 10 gal or similar sized tank? If so 6 lamps would be a far amount of light for that...
I think there is like 4 throughout the nation, I believe Texas has one and another state maybe Oklahoma or something.. Tom, how are the new fish...

For a FOWLR my recommendation is combo 2
Catalina is an off brand, and in this hobby most off brands/knock offs are a waste of money. Not saying you need to drop big $$ on a Giesemann or...
Reef Geek is the SOLE importer of ATI, if someone wants ATI they NEED to buy it through Reef Geek, heck my store needs to. Absolutely not. NEPs or...
