Hey, I’ve been into reefing for about 9ish months. I’ve got a couple frags and a anemone but I’m not sure what light to upgrade to. Any advice ?

It’s a 29 gallon tank & will do! It’s 30 inches long and some Zoas to have a Zoa garden and my nem. I don’t think I want to do any hard core corals in here. Thanks!

For Zoas you can get away with pretty much any light. But the Nem will want a bit more power. So I would say you could get away with a lot of different options and honestly most likely only will need one fixture. Maybe you could search on here for 29 gallon tanks and find one that you like the look of. Of course then you can see what they are using and take it from there. You will have to choose between LED's or T5's of course Metal Hylids are an option too but for your need I dont think you need to consider that. Just a couple thoughts that came to mind! Good Luck!!

Last thing I will note is it looks like your tank is pretty happy :) I wouldn't worry about toxins from the paint, if you want Spongebob in there you can have him! I will say if you start to see flaking or things along those lines you may want to remove those but people use fake plastic stuff in their tanks all the time.

I love @noopsyche lights. There are many members on here that use them. I have noops on my 75 and 125.
