OK....have you decided what you want to keep in your tank as far as corals?????
i want to start off with easy care items and build from there. i've been reading the site on different corals but i wont make a decision until the tank is ready.

Well you can get Current brand T5 bulbs for about $11-$12 each....they are not the favored brand, but if you are just starting out, you can always upgrade your bulbs later....

i dont mind spending money on the good bulbs now if they help the tank in the long run. one thing i've learned is this isnt a cheap hobby and i havent even filled my tank yet!
