I have a 40 gallon column tank. So it's a little deeper then most. I want to do reef. I'm so confused about lighting. I know I don't have enough now. I have a dual 24w t5 10,000k now. I'm reading I need like 160w for this tank. Can someone actually send me a link to what they suggest I buy. I'm having trouble figuring this out.
