Hello
Guys i have been in this hobby over 20 years but always and i mean always a fish only guy. Well mid life crisis and Trying reef
I just bought a 120 gallon oceanic tank and I have a 72 bow. The bow is coming down and I am transfereing all to the 120 but I need to ask about lighting. I have the filtration and skimmer and all of that fine.
Currently On the 72 bow I have 1-Current USA Orbit Marine Aquarium LED Light (46.8 x 3.5 x 0.44 46 Watts 96 Dual Daylight/96 Dual Actinic LEDs, 192 LEDs Total)
1-Coralife Aqualight Dual Linear Strip T5 Aquarium Lighting Fixture
1-Coralife Aqualight Dual Linear Strip T5 Aquarium Lighting Fixture
Can someone please give me some advice on what to add to the lighting mixture. And also what bulbs to put in the t5 (4)
I have picked these 2 units out on Amazon and if one of these would work be great because they are both in the budget but I do not want to cheap out and waste money to save some.
also my tank has a cap but its huge How high off the water surface do these LED lights need to be hung or do they need to at all? My current Current-led is on the glass canopy itself
Thanks In advance
here are the 2
