Ok, I'm a newbie to all this and am still in the process of purchasing all my equipment. I currently have on order w/ my LFS a 120g acrylic 4x2x2. The dealer sold me PC lighting, but now I hear that I should go to MH lighting if I want to have eventually want to have corals and clams. I've heard that I can get by w/ the PC lighting. I haven't p/u any of the equipment yet, so I'm still in a position to change my order to MH if I want to.
Which system would be best for my setup?
Are there any particular models or brand names I should look into?
Do I need it to be retrofit if I'm using a canopy?
What's the diff between eballast, electric ballast & just a ballast?
endless questions...(is there a limit to how many questions I can ask)
confused,
