I'm not clear why some folks here have bio-cubes with T5 or compact florescent and others have metal halide. I am looking to build a small reef ( 30 gal. or so) in my bedroom over the winter and need suggestions as to which way to go as far as lighting . Some nano style set ups have halide lighting and others not. Mostly I will have soft corals, clams,mushrooms and the sort. I am very much a NEWBIE to this and just want your help to make my next adventure a success. Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions you have on choosing the right self contained compact tank.
