Frag tank light

[rs1831]

Any suggestions on what I should use for lighting on a 36x18x12 frag tank?

Thanks!

I use t5 supplemented with reefbrites. Very happy with the results.

Mostly you should match your frag tank light to your DT.

This way you don't have to light acclimate frags when moving from DT to frag tank and vice versa.

I appreciate your feedback. Thanks

I use a par bulb from RapidLED, although you'd need probably 3 for your application, they still run quite cheap compared to most other options.

I would try to match your display lighting if possible.

Thanks, PaulKreider. I'll check that out. I am strongly considering led's.

Currently I am using a ATI t-5 fixture with reefbrights for my display. If I did the same for my frag tank, what size fixture should I get and how many bulbs?
