Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I'm a newbie to SW so I've been reading and reading constantly, but it seems like the more I read the more confused I get. :? Eventually, I would like to have some corals. Nothing hard core, just the basic easy to maintain ones...anemones, shrooms,etc. I know a lighting upgrade is necessary, but which one? I have a 26G which is about 21" tall, 23 3/4" length.
Is this considered a "tall" tank?
If so, will a 2x65 watt fixture be enough light for the things I want?
My main confusion is with the T-5 lighting. From what I've been reading, T-5's give off more light than a PC? Even if the T-5's have lower wattage?
I was either gonna go with a Coralife 2x65 watt PC fixture or the Nova Extreme 4x24 watt T-5 fixture. Any input would be great to ease my confusion.
