What's a good lighting source for condy and bta's that aren't super spendy? I currently have LEDs and thinkin those 2 nems would be nice to have down the road but want to make sure I'm set on hardware before moving along to properly take care of them. Is their any special treatment they get or are they pretty relaxed. Any hardware you guys run just for these guys, not coral related just fowlr based tank. Chemicals or anything that may be needed as well would help. Even an article to read would help me become better prepared.
 
Melev has a great video on them He covers BTA but this should do fine for almost all nems.

I've heard good feed back on this type of leds but haven't experienced with leds specially for nems I'm hopping to change to leds

What size tank do you have? T5, metal halide and LED are all great choices. Which one to go with will depend on the tank size.
