[funkyseamonkey]

Like the title says I'm interested in buying a light fixture for my 80 gallon reef. I'm open to all kinds I just want one that works great for coral growth. Please let me know what you have. Thanks,
Sarah

what is tank demensions are you trying to keep heat down??

[funkyseamonkey]

I don't have something to measure with but its about the size of your standard 75 gallon. And currently I mainly only have fish and some mushrooms...bsp, Kenya trees so nothing fancy. But my t5 lightfixture shorted and caught fire. So i need something that will replace that but I want to start doing something with better corals so I want something that won't catch fire but will help keep corals other then softies.

I have a marineland 48 inch LED fixture Ill sale you for $280. I have the box and receipt. Less than a year old. Look at Marinelands website and check out the REEF LEDs.

The only reason why I will sale it is because I want an 8ft RR tank and I have a lot of ballasts and vhos to get by with. lmk LEDs are the way to go, in my opinion.

As long as your height is not to much you can use 1watt LEDs to grow coral without fans. Works great for me. Check out the spec at Marineland website. lmk
