    Ecotech is the Apple of the aquarium market in every sense. They make beautiful very functional things at a luxury price. If money really wasn't part of the equation, that would probably be the way I go.

    They use CW, CB, RB, and DR, decent. But for $600 or whatever they're selling the Radion G2's for, it isn't worth it.

    Good choice, IMO go with the non solderless ones. You have a lot more choices in spectrum.

    I will put one more vote in for the Apollo'... great color and coverage at a minimum price.. allowed me the savings to purchase the apex, I wanted anyway

    Reefbreeders controlable 24"......Great price and you can custom set your sunrise. They have a nice preset spectrum, or you can have them customize the lights to your needs/ wants.
