Should we get the life out BEFORE the oil gets it?
YES 81.82% - NO 18.18%
YES! Of course, we should take a sampling of all the life in the gulf that makes up the eco system to preserve it for future re-population. If you killed all the life in the gulf it would be a tragedy, but if you couldn't bring it back that would be FOREVER!
Is Saltwater harder then Freshwater?
YES 17.65% - NO 82.35%
NO! Only the lies of the industry makes it hard. Knowing the TRUTH makes it easier.
What type of lighting do you use?
PCS 70.00% - T5'S 10.00% - HALIDE 20.00% - LED'S 0.00% - OTHER 0.00%
PCS are good for most soft corals, some hard corals and fish only tanks.
T5'S Might be used in combination with halides BUT are not cost effective and are NOT efficient for most corals. They in fact are on their way out.
HALIDE'S are the best form of lighting for hard corals, reefs and although they maybe costly they will ensure the life of the creatures.
LED'S are not quite there yet. Although they are energy efficient the spectrum and effectiveness are questionable.
