I have done several searches and am still at a loss. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to which lighting solution would be best? It is for a 55 gallon tank that is currently fish only. But I will be moving the tank from it current stand into its own closet and am thinking about adding corals and a refugium that will share this light as well hopefully. I have narrowed it down to the following 3 choices:
1. HQI/T5 Outer Orbit
1072 48" 2x150 watt 2x54w 2x54w 9/9 48" x 15" x 4.25" 529
2. HQI/T5 Outer Orbit
1077 48" 2x250 watt 2x54w 2x54w 9/9 48" x 15" x 4.25" 729
3. Nova Extreme
1123 48" 4x54watt 4x54watt 4 Yes Yes 48" x 14" x 2.5" 432 3.72
Size should not be to much of an issue as I can hang them from the ceiling in this new room. Heat I do not think would be to bad because the room has 8 foot ceilings and the room is roughly 7 foot by 3 foot. Any suggestions or thought would be greatly appreciated.
