Now, you went from what to what?
And, what a difference, and how are the corals doing?

Are there any corals you are now considering getting, due to the lighting upgrade?

Just for everyone's reference, that's 96W on a side PC vs. 154W T5. Roughly a 50% increase in wattage, but obviously a MUCH larger increase in brightness and intensity.
The sum of my knowledge is great, the sum of my ignorance greater still

Sorry I never got back to this. LOL Well, I'm not just considering it anymore, I did get a few more corals, and they are all SPS.
3 Monti digitata and 5 Monti Caps.
