10 Gallon frag tank Lighting?

[nsakis]

My girlfriend wants to start up a nano and is going to use the 10 gallon frag tank that she won at the Christmas meet. Dims are 20x20x8. Im looking for LED suggestions. Nothing fancy. She will just be keeping softies and maybe some small LPS. I would love a cheaper ebay suggestion. Thanks!

How about reef breeders value fixtures? They are decent LEDs for the price.

What would be the suggested amount of wattage for such a shallow tank?

 

[Reefcube29]

1-2 watts per gallon for softies 3-4 watts for hard stuff

That would fry a 10 gal tank

yeah I also saw that the smallest size is a 24" so its too big for your tank.
