Hello All

So I'm starting up a frag tank. Actual growing area is 48x25x6 I'm looking for lighting recommendations. Something that will grow frags fast.
 
T5s grow stuff pretty fast. So do metal halides. What type of corals are you planning on growing?
 
I'm going to grow mainly sps. I'm leaning to the Ocean Revive T247's they are cheap and should do the job since the tank is only 6 inches deep
