Lighting help/corner tank with room for only 18" lights

[boardsurfer]

Ok, sorry for so many questions lately. Please read my tank specs below, and help me find lighting for my FOWLR. I have a corner tank, and the hood has slots (the lid has two 20" long slots for two 18" lights).

One of the lights I have a 32watt smartlite (10,000k & ultra-actinic), and the other is a basic 15watt flourecent. Obviously I need to get rid of the 15 watt. I want to keep my LR alive, so what light can I use?

1) I don't want to hang a metal halide from the ceiling.
2) I don't want to use another smartlite retrofit 32 watt 10,000k and 03 because that wouldn't be enought wattage per gallon, would it?

another 32 would be plenty of light to keep LR alive... it is very undemanding of massive light intensity... Unless you are going to switch to a reef setup, I would do the 65 watts total... It would look good....

Wattage per gallon is no rule these days with the intensity of the lamps... JMO

I agree with timbo.
