    Well said. I've seen the 20k radiums and they are spectacular. Very crisp blue / white, no need for any actinic supplementation IMO. 150 watt on that depth tank would be perfect. Also with the swing arm you can keep it high enough off the water and there's enough ventilation temperature should be no problem.

    I was thinking the exact same thing.

    That particular unit comes with a 14k which will be perfect for me, I think, as I don't really like the blue look.

    Looks like the 150w Viper is coming out ahead so far...
