What lighting type(s) do you use over your primary coral tank?

[fishface NJ]

Just t5

 

[Viking_Reefing]

A Giesemann aurora V8. 8 80w T5’s and 5 led pucks.
Large acro colonies need that diffused light.

Use fluorescents. Sorry. I can't edit it.

Led and led

 

[90's reefer]

Was halides with led. Now led only on nano cube and frag system.
Just took down my 120 with 2 250 halides and Orphek bars.
It is being replaced with a 80g 48x24x16. Easier for me to work on/in.
The 80 will be all led. My halides are in storage for a rainy day build, lol.
I will go with 16hds on the 80 based on my results with my frag and nano systems which are running them.

You weren't the first. A reefer noted it days ago.

Too bad you cannot cross reference these number with how long each person has been in the hobby. I think that might show some insights as well...

 

[ReefGeezer]

I use T5s over my 90.

Led x Led kessil 360x and reefbrite xhos.

 

[homer1475]
