Softy light.

Victoria M · Feb 2, 2019

I have a 10 gallon invert QT that I would like to light for soft coral QT short term. Just to keep them for a week or so for observation and dip treatments. Has anyone got any suggestions? I feel overwhelmed hunting through ebay and amazon so thought I would ask here.

Par38 bulb ? Cheap and good

What light fixtures were you looking at? I wouldn't use anything too expensive or intense for the setup you describe.

See if you can find a used Black Box LED. You won't need to turn it up very high, but at 20 inches, it is hard to find too many lights - T5s don't go that small.

If you can find a cheap used halide that’s probably what I would go with.

I am not sure what this means in terms of a light fixture? Cheap and good sounds perfect though.

I am on the hunt for a used something through craigslist. I would prefer to just get an amazon deal if I can though.
