70w bulb suggestions

jungliztkruger · 09/07/2009, 03:21 PM

i will be putting a 70w sunpod over my new 10 gallon nano and this is my first venture into mh. there is plenty of info on the bigger bulbs but im having trouble figuring out which to use over this tank.

it is planned as a primarily sps tank so i would like a decent amount of par but the growth rate doesnt need to be spectacular or anything.

i prefer the bluer look to a tank so im pretty well decided that a 10k wont work for me. other than that im at a loss as to how i should go about deciding which brand/ k value to get.

after seeing many tanks im saddened that radium doesnt make a 70w de version

give me your suggestions on brands slash k values

btw the back of the tank is painted krylon blue and the substrate is crushed coral
