    I am not hat familiar with the Apollo lights, but the AI sols have are designed to light 1 linear foot per unit. So, for a 4' tank, the recommendation is 4. The Apollo is designed to light 2', so, you only need 2. Now whether or not it is a good deal, is in the eye of the beholder. Also with AI you need a controller. So, in the end AI is definitely top of the line, but still very expensive.

    Hello,
    I sold my 2 120 watt 12k Apollo lights before i ever installed them to go with all MH. The guy who bought them from me sent some pics and i thought wow glad i sold them didn't look that good. Then i saw them in person on his tank and they looked really nice and he is very happy with them. Very crisp looking and corals looked good so much for some pics i guess:)
