I 'm thinking about to get Aquactinics 36" TX5 for my SPS prop tank.

I wonder that fixture will be excellant choice for 36 X 18 X 17? than to have 6X36 t5 retrofit?

Tank will be SPS and clam.

Thanks

aeroaustion,

You should have no problems keeping SPS and clams with our TX5 fixture on your tank. I have a 46ga bowfront (similar in size to your tank) and am keeping SPS in the sand bed, 18" down.

Thank you,

Tom,

what the bulbs do you use for your lighting in 46 gal bowfront and the height of sand?

Ron,

I use the following lamps for my 46ga bow.

Fixture: 36" TX5
Front
1) Aquaz Ocean Pro
2) Aquaz Blue Pro
3) UVL 75/25
4) Aquaz Blue Pro
5) Aquaz Ocean Pro
Back

A 46ga bow is a 20" high tank. I have a 2" sandbed so the SPS sitting on the sandbed are 18" from the surface and I keep the TX5 sitting directly on the tank.

Thank you,
