Ok got a good one for ya here. Seeing as I only have a 20" deep tank do I really need MH or can I get away with PC's or T5's?
What I am looking has these specs:
2-96 watt 10,000K Daylight
2-96 watt 03 Blue Actinic Compact Fluorescent Lamps
2 built in ballasts,
4-3/4 watt Lunar Blue Moon Glow LED Lamps
2 cooling fans
Link below...
Coralife Lunar Aqualight Powercompact Aquarium Lighting
Approx 3.1 watts per gallon. I know, not enough for high end stuff(anenomies, etc)
My conundrum(spelling) is the next one up has 576 watts for more than twice the price. Would it be possible to add a 2nd light bar, same specs as above, bumping me to 6.2 watts per gallon and be effective for anenomies, and light intensive livestock? Just set them next to each other, they are skinny enough to place both on top on the tank...
I honestly do not want to do MH. Heat will be an issue and will be forced to purchase a chiller. Want to avoid it if possible...
Thanks ahead of time...
