Hey guys I need advice. I'm setting up my 55gal. I've searched for lighing on a 55gal but have come up empty handed. I'm thinking MH but I have no clue as to what wattage or anything. Can someone guide me a little here? I'd like pendant lights I THINK! lol

Thanks,

Diana

It really depends on what you want to keep. For MH I would recomend 2x250w bulbs. With that you can keep whatever you want as far as lighting goes. You may also want to add some actinics for color. To give you a good answer LMK what your gonna keep.

well I'm not even sure, for now the same types of things I have in my 10 gal. Soft corals and shrooms, but I'd eventally like to branch out to some hard corals and clams so I may as well start off at the top. Would PC's be better? Also if I go with MH is there a major difference between the pendant lights and the hood lights?
