I was wondering what type of lighting to chose for my sea horse tank. I bumped the sea horse tank into my old 90 gallon when my daughter's 45 tank sprung a leak :scared:
So far all I plan to put in the tnak is non photosynthetic gorgonians.....
I'd like to try some sps.....but not certain.
I would like to pick a light that would acomidate sps corals if I decided to add them later, but I do not want to use MH lights, because seahorses like cooler temps; and I am not interested in purchasing a chiller.
So I would need a 4 ft light.....the tank is 24 inches tall.......I have little knowledge of t-5 and t-8 compact lighting, however I have an old coral life compact light fixture that I purchased when I first started with salt water. I am quite certain that it would be fine for the seahorse and gorgonians...but not so sure about sps.
Suggestions :notsure:
Thanks,Rykna
