    I really like LPS corals. I might try a couple SPS, monti caps are my favorite sps. I was trying to get the most out the 4 bulbs as i can, while using this brand. I got 1 sun wave and 1 reef wave already. i currently have the reef wave and my old odyssea blue actinic bulbs in the actinic slots. the color is awesome. I like the blue/ purple mix so i was thinking of replacing the old blue actinic with a super blue.
    That leaves one more of my daylight slots open. I want to put whichever of their bulbs has the highest PAR here, sounds like it might be the blue wave. I do like the idea of the coral wave though , kinda balances out the spectrum in the tank. Adds some red.

    Aaaarrrgggghhhh, decisions, decisions.

    I'm not in the the US, so shipping will be a pain and very expensive, if they even offer overseas shipping. I prefer to buy the bulbs locally and not risk having them arrive broken or anything like that.
    Thanks though.
