Ok, been reading on here for days, so much good info. As of now i have a 10g with a 20" nova PC wiht 40w bulb and a power bright blue led strip. I know this isnt the best, i got the nova for free and i think in good time i may step up to a 20h or 20l. So is this lighting enough to keep my acans and zoo happy and growing or am i missing out?


TIA

40w is a little low, it should be ok for the zoas but I donno about the acan. The 10g is only what 10" deep? Being that shallow helps you with the weak light. Maybe look into a T5HO setup, or just wait till you get the bigger tank

thanks for your reply, If i do a 20h, i could get a nice 24" and use it on my 10g for now. So many options in t5, its almost impossible to figure out which one to use.
