Hi everyone
I'm building a 40 breeder tank to start keeping my first corals (I've done fish only for over a year with a lot of success) and I'm wondering what kind of lighting setup would be best. I currently have two 36" coralife T5 fixtures with two bulbs each, so four bulbs in total. Is this right for keeping lps and eventually sps?
Also, should I raise the lights above the tank at all? I've seen this a lot but I'm not sure if I'll need to with two separate fixtures.
Thanks!
