I'm 50/50. 200 reef, 40 seahorse, 100 discus and a 90 planted angel fish. The planted tank is by far the most work. Either fighting algae or constantly trimming plants.

I have the same problems with Sunlight and PFO pendants. They are a real pain to replace the bulbs. It almost makes me want to switch back to SE after breaking an 80 dollar bulb.
