[TigerBarbs]

is this a good light. it would be over a 29 gallon tank. could I grow soft corals with it?

 

[TigerBarbs]

if not, what would you recommend

Not sure how much the zoo-med is, but here would be a good fixture for you - 30in 4Bulbs fixtures

 

[TigerBarbs]

the zoo med runs 2 24 watt bulbs. the one u posted is sweet but what brand is it and stuff

 

[mfdrookie516]

It's fishneedit brand lol. I've got several of them. It's cheap because its not a big name brand, but it functions exactly the same.

 

[TigerBarbs]

how many watt bulbs?

 

[mfdrookie516]

They are 24" 24w bulbs.

 

[TigerBarbs]

could the zoo med grow soft corals and stuff like that ?

 

[TigerBarbs]

never mind... I'm gettin a fishneedit! thanks so much!

 

[TigerBarbs]

can u run any t5ho bulbs in it or do they have to be fishneedit

 

[mfdrookie516]

Yes, most fixtures allow you to use any bulbs you want, though there are some that don't. the ones that don't are the ones to avoid. I would replace them with some ATI bulbs if you're housing corals.

okay thanks so much!!
