Im looking for a fixture that will sit on a tank not hang from the roof.
Im looking for a 3ft fixture that sits on a 40 breeder that can grow high ligh sps and other low light coral.
What I have learned is that 1WATT 10k LEDS tend to burn some zoas but sps actually grow with 1WATT LEDS on shallow tanks.
As allways placement is important. T5s dont seem to be enough. I think it should be a mixture of LED and T5.
I may go with a Marineland REEF LED in the middle and 2 2bulb T5 on both sides.
Of course a couple of DE 14k MH with T5/LED may be the way to go.
If you know a fixture with a mix lmk. I may have to build a fixture.
