joegold Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I'm setting up a minibow 7 system and am choosing a lighting setup. I'm torn between the Realux 2x36w compact retro and 2 Custom Sea Life Smartlite retros (32w each). Length is an issue- the Realux is 17.5 in. and the CSL is 15 in. The minibow is 16 inches in length. I'm planning on keeping soft corals and possibly a small bubble tip anemone. Any suggestions? Thanks!! joe ps the CSL includes smart lamps while the Realux has custom bulb choices. Link to comment
djconn Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Don't know if its makes your decision any easier but I have the Custom Sea Life Smartlite retros in my 5.5 and I'm very happy with them... Link to comment
joegold Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 Thanks djconn! Do the CSL's produce heat enough to impact tank temperature? I'm concerned with this, especially in the summer months. Also, do you know what color temperature the bulbs are? Thanks!! joe Link to comment
