Has anyone asked Rich at Coral Ranch about the solar? I know he has some additional lighting but I don't think he depends heavily on the extra lighting.
No too sure... i personally am not a fan of the sun look... yeah i know it's best but I love that "blue" look that makes everything pop
Spare the tube, invest in solar panels for a KA LED setup.... save energy that way, and keep your blue artificial look.... my .02
I also wonder how the sunlight can start in on some algae? since it's right around that 3k-6500k mark depending on what time of day it is. might make a nasty mess.
