60g lighing suggestions

33percent · Mar 4, 2013

Hi,

I've had soft corals for acouple months now with minimum growth. The lighting I've been using was an LED fixture(not sure of the brand), If you've been to discount fish in La Habra, Dave uses LED fixture for his frag tanks...well, I had the same one.

I would like to grow SPS corals and grow pretty much anything. I recently switched out the LED lights(which I was told was only putting out 30watts?) to 1 250watt Metal Halide bulb.

Long story short, I'm looking for any lighting suggestions for my 48" tank.

Hi wowdude11,

Will definitely keep your offer in mind but before buying another fixture, I want to get opinions and maybe get a little educated first before I make the mistake I previously did.

The ATI on the previous post would be a great light fixture for your tank. You should be able to grow anything anywhere

Well, my buddy passed on the light. This is his current MH fixture. Will this work with his 60g?

If you want innexpensive but nice color, and decent growth, those generic 120w taotronics are actually not bad. My tank is excelling with them
