The
MH lights on the NC28 will allow you to keep more light intensive corals than the
PC lights in the BC29. In my NC24 with the stock
PC lights I have softies, Euphyllia, and Pocillopora. I believe you could keep some Montipora corals in it too.
Going to 150 watts of
MH on that size of tank would enable you to keep most corals, including
Acropora, if you can keep the water parameters stable enough. It may also require you to buy a chiller because of the heat from the
MH bulbs.
