I have a standard size 65 gal. 36" long
I am upgrading my lighting from 2 96 watt Power Compacts to 4 96s and if I can get it to fit I'll add my 2 65 watt Power Compacts too.
I was wondering what would be the best bulb options.
I was thinking of 3 96 watt 10k daylights + 1 55 watt 10K (I have)
and 1 96 watt Actinic and a 65 watt Actinic.
Is this enough on the Actinic? I want to keep corals and also want to know if this is enough light for everything or is there some that require more then this. This is 7.6 watts per gal of Power compact.
Any other Ideas on Bulb combos. The 65s I have already and only 1 each The 96 I can pretty much go with any combo of 10k and Actinic.
