    What lighting are you using for SPS?

    Just curious what the SPS keepers are using, and whether your SPS are thriving under them.

    I'm using the Reefbreeders Photons. I have the old version over one tank and the new version over another. I have a lot of SPS doing well under both.
    Don't look here for a comment.

    T5, radion pro 30, Chinese black box, T5 and metal halide,

    I'm still trying to figure out what I like better. Halides give the best color imo.
