what lights system to get?

[TEETEE562]

Im thinking of getting a new light system but dont know what to get. My current setup is a 50g cube, 24"x24"20" running an ai hydra. Im thinking of either upgrading to the hydra 52 ($450) or get one kessil 360we and one kessil 350 ($400 for both) or go the t5 route with an 24" 6 bulb ATI dimmable sunpower (320). I love the the leds but the t5 seems to have better corals growth.

Sounds like you aren't too concerned with the budget. Lol

I just got my kessil 360we and have it over my 60 cube 24 square it seems to light it much better than the reefbreeders led I had over it. I doubt very much if I will need another light.

The color and shimmer is fantastic it looks like a metal halide without the heat.

 

I have noticed since I switched to leds I am not getting the growth I did with t5's or metal halide.

Check my stuff out as well. The Nano Box Duo would be great or I could do a RETRO on a ATI and include quality LEDs.
