Top Metal Halide Fixtures
Metal halide lighting is most often the best choice for those keeping stony corals and other marine life that requires intense elimination. Relatively small for their size and the amount of light they put out makes these top choice units very popular. They are well designed, add a stylish look to any aquarium, and most even include lunar lights.
Top PC Fluorescent Light Fixtures
Sleek, affordable, and an upgrade from standard or normal output lights that can't support the growth of corals and other such reef tank inhabitants, here you can shop for and compare prices on a wide range of higher output power compact fluorescent light fixtures.
Top PC & MH Lighting Retrofit Kits
In the constant quest for more wattage in the same space, many saltwater hobbyists choose to upgrade an existing fluorescent light fixture by using a retrofit kit to convert the light hood or canopy over to hold either PC (Power Compact) or MH (Metal Halide) bulbs, rather than buy a complete new setup.
Top Light Ballast Kits
Upgrade or replace your old ballast or create a whole new lighting system for your tank with these ballast kits. The energy efficient electronic ballasts provide more lighting power and a lower light bill.
Top Standard Aquarium Light Hoods & Strips
Standard aquarium light hoods and strips come equipped with normal output lamps, which is suitable for a fish-only system. One can choose to start with a full hood, or a light strip combined with a glass canopy, and then simply upgrade it at any time by putting in a higher output 50/50, 10K or other compatible fluorescent bulb.
