I've been trying to do some research on what kind of lighting I will need once I start to add corals. Most of my research states: MH if you have the cash, if you don't T-5's work fine as well. It seems that florescent lighting everyone disproves of as its not as bright as T-5 lighting. I was at the LFS and they have a used floresant light fixture that is 260ish watts. I really only plan on keeping soft corals, mushrooms, and zoanthids in this tank.
I can afford T-5's but I would rather save the money and put it toward my 180 gallon project I will be building once we buy a house this year. With this light get me by with my tank given what I want to add?
