Nova Extreme vs Nova Extreme Pro
This question has probably been asked already but the search is not working right now. I have narrowed my choices of lights down to the Extreme and the Extreme pro. I see that the Extreme models includes 4 moonlights. However, I can not tell if moonlights are included with the Pro. Can anyone tell me if moonlights are included with the 48” NOVA EXTREME PRO?
Thanks |

The pro doesn't have moonlights. I have the Extreme 48, 8 54's and so far am pretty happy...but would like to eventually upgrade to a constellation or powermodule.

if it were my tank I wold go with the pro. You can always add moonlights and you will have more stocking options with the pro.

Noboddi you are probably right. But what I am wondering is 324 watts with individually reflectors (pro) that much more powerful than 432 watts with one reflector. Also I'm a little concerned about the heat.

I had both, the moonlights in the Non-Pro kept burning out on me.
I now have the Pro and while it does not have moonlights it is a simple mattter to add them. The pro is a Much bettter light. |

Thanks, I'll go with the pro.
They're on sale for the same price as the non-pro. This makes the decision even easier. |
