hi,

I have a ten gallon reef that I'm starting and was wondering what people thought about my lighting situation. I have my old freshwater light with is 50 watts (two twenty fives). But you know, thats those types that get burning hot. SO i assume there not useful during this situation. for coral what do you think the best new solution is. Im on a budget so Im not looking for some high tech $300 lights. more like <50 bucks

another thread lol

 

so what you have learned from your other threads, your options for "cheap" lighting are:

 

A fixture with at least 2 T5HOs

 

Aquastyle LEDs

 

-or-

 

you could probably get away with a single PAR30 or PAR38 bulb over a 10g

When I first started a couple of months ago lights was my problem, they are really expensive like you say but the aquastyle kit is pretty awesome theres a lot of people here using them.

 

I ordered the first kit for my 10g yesterday =)
