Need your suggestions! T5's for acan / zoa / paly tank.

[thewackyreefer]

Thinking about adding a second tank to my system for my (future) acans and zoas / palys.

Tank will be 24" x 16" x 14". What would you suggest as far as T5's go?

2 or 4 bulbs?
What brand fixture? Let's say under $500 and has legs to sit on the tank.
What bulbs?


Thanks guys, first shot at T5's so I appreciate the help!

I have the aquatic life t5 fixture, it has 4 bulbs, 2 blue and 2 white has 4 sets of led moon lights. It has its own built in timer on front of fixture. Has legs to set on top of tank.

Hi luvmyacans,

I think I would agree with rjcranor on the AquaticLife T5 HO fixture. A 4 bulb fixture would be great for that tank. As mentioned above, it has legs to mount it on the aquarium, a built in timer, and moon lighting. The fixture also includes the bulbs! I hope this helps.
