i really need some advice...i want to upgrade my lighting for my aquarium. i have narrowed it down to 2 choices. but first let me give you my tank and setup...i have a 29g with regular flourescent lighting. i was wanting to eventually have enough lighting for possibly some corals and anemones. my 2 choices are these...
Coralife Aqualight Power Compact 30in with
1 -10000 K daylight 65 watts
1 - true actinic 65 watts
2 - 3/4 watt blue moonlight
2 cooling fans
3 power switches
3 power cord plugins
Dual Satellite Power Compact 30in. with
1 - dual daylight 65 watts (6700/10000 K)
1 - dual actinic 65 watts (420/460 nm)
1 - 1 watt white moonlight
1 - cooling fan
dont know on the # of power switches/pugins
either choice leaves me with the same amount of light. but would it be better to get the Coralife light that has two fans? does it make a difference. also, does suspending the light over the tank compared to mounting the light to the aquarium have a difference? i really would like some advice. thanks
