Why dont we use HID technology
Okay.. I have MH lighting on my tank and it works great and my powerbill reflects...LOL...
Anyway.. I have HIDs in my car and they work wonderful in lighting up the night... They come in various kelvin, and are more effecient than traditional lighting. How come this technology hasnt made it to the reef trade?
