Is a 36W PC Coralife lighting good enough for a 15g long?
water_wako Member Jun 28, 2008 #2 Go with T-5 lighting. It is much better and you have some more coral options. PC lighting is crappy and you will better coral colour. Plus, you can keep soft and LPS corals with T-5 without any problems.

chroniccoral35 Member Jun 28, 2008 #3 Is their a website that would have a T5 that could clamp on to a 15g long? how many watts?
water_wako Member Jun 29, 2008 #4 Correct me if I am wrong, the length is 24". That means a T-5 Fixture with 4 bulbs would be about 96 watts.
