SRC Member Clownfish Posted October 16, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted October 16, 2003 IMO, go for at least T5s lah.... it's easy to get addicted once u start to buy corals.... then u will think of upgrading to MH next Quote My Personal Blog My Wedding Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member jazzben81 Posted October 16, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted October 16, 2003 for ur depth i suppose T5 will be enough for those soft corals. y not get a 2x 150W MH for around the same price(abit higher plus possible use of a chiller)? btw i hope ur tank is 10mm.
