T5 lighting
Would 24 watts of actinic and 24 watts of 10,000K be okay for a 10 gallon reef? Its T5 by the way. Heres the fixture:
Zoo Med AquaSun T-5 HO Double Light Linear Fluorescent Hood at PETCO Its the 24 inch one. Just wondering because I am thinking about setting one up in the future. Not sure if I will, but just wondering if it is enough. |

Re: T5 lighting
First off...what type of corals are you thinking of keeping? T-5's are a great light source for corals , however , you need to have individual reflectors for each bulb to get maximum output from them. I am not sure if the light you posted has individual reflectors. Now after saying all that, being just a 10 gallon tank I am sure it will be enough light for what you wanna keep even if they aren't individual reflectors. Your tank isn't that deep so you should be goood to go.
