so cal
how often should you change your bulb on a reef tank? a friend mentioned w/ snakes you have to change the bulb every few months because it runs outta nutrients or somthing. is this the same for saltwater? it doesnt sound quite right to me, but im new to saltwater.
 
for Metal halides every 12-14 months
for T-5's every 6-8 months
for Power Compact lights every 6 months
