Convince me to keep my lights!

I'm liking what I'm hearing about ocean revives! I think that i will be spending some money on a par meter to get both tanks dialed in. I think that part of the problem is that I have been just going by what looks good and winging it as far as intensity goes! I feel that I need to take the lighting of my tanks to the next level and dialing in the par will help me to get there.

This is smart. Investment in a Par meter is very smart.

Save your money and spend it on corals and fish. The purpose of getting a reef tank is having cool corals and fish. Get only equipment to support this goal, and if your equipment already does, why change? Few reefers start a reef tank because they saw a Kessil, Bubble King, etc. and said, "I want to start a reef tank so I can get a Kessil over it or buy a Bubble King."

I agree 1000%! I started one because I can't go snorkeling as often as I would like to so instead I can just stare at my tank and daydream! It's been scientifically proven that it lowers blood pressure and stress levels too! Makes sense why so many doctors offices have aquariums! Lol
