[Lazy Iguana]

I have an Aquapod 12 with a 70 watt HQI light. It is not set up yet.

I did fill it with tap water just to see how it wold look.

To be honest, the 14,000 kelvin light is really blue. I think a 10,000 kelvin light would show true colors better.

And the 70 watt light seems kind of weak. I am considering swapping out my 70 watt ballast for a 150 watt ballast.

But all this is just my opinion. Really, I do not have the experience to say what is good or not good.

My opinions are based on what I have seen, and that I figure I need in order to keep "anything". I do not even know what I want to keep in my tank. SPS? Clams? Who knows. But I want the light to keep whatever I decide to keep.

And really - with the 70 watt HQI I would question the logic in keeping stuff with strong lighting requirements.

Others with more experience may agree or disagree with me. I will be following this thread as I really do want to know what they think.

I have enough knowledge and experience to know that I know nothing. No more.
