| I was just wondering how many watts and what type of lightning you suggest for a 75 gallon salt tank. I do plan on having corals in the tank so i know lighting is very important. |

| basically there are many ways to do it some options are below * mushrooms, leathers, brains, polyps should have bare minimum of 2.5 watts per gallon *hammers, pearls, frogspawn, most others should have a bare minimum of 4 watts per gallon *acropora and most small polyp stonys (SPS) should have a bare minimum of 5.5 watts per gallon (some maniacs use 8 or more watts per gallon) *all corals benefit from really bright light mostly in the blue spectrum (there are very few you could buy that would be overlit) *the 10000K, 14000K, 20000K refer to the depth of the blue color 20000 being the deepest blue *you can swap out different color bulbs as your wishes require, no extra charge *T5 system is probably the most efficient, as far as bulb replacement and energy usage is concerned CUR 48” SATELLTE 2x65W PC STRIP $150 CUR 48” DUALSAT 4x65W PC STRIP $250 CUR 48” ORBIT 4x65W PC STRIP $290 CUR 48” ORBIT EXTREME 2x130W PC STRIP $320 CUR 48” ORBIT 4x96W PC STRIP $575 CUR 48” ORBIT EXTREME 4x130W PC STRIP $750 CUR 48” NOVA EXTREME T5HO 4X54 $275 CUR 48” NOVA EXTREME T5HO 8X54 $500 CUR 48” OUTORB 150W HQI/T5HO $850 SALE CUR 48” OUTORB HALIDE/PC STRIP $850 SALE 2 of these) CUR 1X250W 10K HQI/PC PENDANT $450 SALE 2 of these) CUR 1X150W 10K HQI-MH PENDANT $280 SALE 2 of these) CUR 1X150W 14K HQI-MH PENDANT $280 SALE 2 of these) CUR 1X150W 10K HQI/PC PENDANT $375 SALE |
