I have somewhat been dreading to post this question. I am in the info gathering stage of transforming a 29g fresh into a reef, and what do you suppose has happened? With all this new found knowledge I have become a danger to myself.
I would like to eventually have both LPS and SPS. Great. MH and PC combos? Get it. So here's the question...
Other than aesthetics, what is the purpose of an actinic bulb? For arguments sake, what would be the result of putting 4x65w 10,000k PC over a set up like this?
From what I've gathered in reading so far, PC's lack intensity to reach the necessary depths, correct?
I know that discussing the qualities of light is a quagmire, I'm just trying to resolve all my stupid questions here rather than subject my wife and tank to a litany of failed experiments.
Thanks for your patience
