    I have 240W of powercompacts (pc) and I have a montipora cap and a montipora digata. Anyone else growing sps under pc and if you are, how about pics and info on the tank.

    Thanx

    the fs i go to she swears by pcs. she does have some mhs in the 125s she has but any of the other tanks she only has pcs in them and she has a big variety of corals in them. plus her display nano ia all pc and its loaded with corals of all types.

    The last store I worked at only had pc's for their sps tank. I've been using them for 4 years now on my tanks with loads of growth. I change my bulbs every 9 months and stagger the change. I have 145watts(2x 65 - 1x 15w) of pc on my 30g and you should see the growth of my pavona. He's grown several inches over a year span.
