hey all, i'm a newbie to you salties! most of the time i hang around the freshwater planted tank forum, but i think i'd like to set up a 10 gallon nano reef. i understand most of what's going on except for the lighting. i'd like to keep coral, though i'm not sure exactly what kind just yet...i'm still a few months off from setting this up as my planted 85gal is priority numero uno i was checking out the setups for some nano tanks and they had a 96W powercompact bulb on a 10 gallon tank!!! that seemed excessive to me, but i'm probably wrong. would the 1x36 kit from AHSupply with the 10k/actinic combo be enough? i could go to the 2x36, but only if that's absolutely necessary. i'll probably DIY the hood. any other links/info would be great. thanks in advance!
