My wife has a 29G tank. Considering the size of the aquarium, there aren't a whole lot of fish that can be kept (current residents are 2 percula clowns and a sixline wrasse). We were thinking of getting a dwarf angel to finish the fish. Aside from the fish, I think that we would like to turn this aquarium into a reef (as it is our living room aquarium...my 55 is relegated to the "man's lair downstairs).
The problem that I have recently encountered is finding better lighting. We currently have the a double tube flourescent light (not sure of the wattage). I was looking to go t5 or Metal Halide, though can't spend a ton of $$. The tank is 30" long. All of the lights that I seem to find are either 36 or 24 inches long.
I did find a product (K-2 Viper HQI Clamp on lamp) that was more designed for nano aquariums, but was thinking that a pair of them would work nicely for this tank ($149.99 each for 75W or $199.99 each for 150W).
I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these lights or has any other ideas for a tank this size.
