t-8 aga triple tube light

[fish boy]

i just got a 48 " aga t-8 triple tube light what kind of tank can i use this on i dont really know anything about lites someone told meit could be used on a reef tank is that true

if you stuck it on a 40long you would have 3w/gallon, enough for some shrooms and i think a few corals that don't require high lighting, ask around, i'm pretty sure you could find something that could survive under that amount of light (colt??)

if you want to put it on your 75, you wouldn't have enough light for the corals.. MAYBE some shrooms

so i could put soom shrooms inthe 75 gallon with that lite

i think if you ran 2actinic and a marine white you could, or one actinic and 2 50/50... i have some shrooms in a 75 w/ 4 48" t-8s and they seem well except they reproduce really slowly... i would repost under reef tanks and just ask if that is enough light for shrooms, also find out which ones you will get more responses there
