petplanet Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Run mine uder T5's. Used to run under T8's. Have run the same livestock under both. Most have responded better to the T5 lighting. Hammer coral Pearl bubble (these are HUGE) Torch Coral Finger coral (This is big and I take cuttings) Anemone (massive) Mushrooms (reproducing like crazy) Leather coral (big) Sun polyps (don't need light) Zoanthids Yellow polyps The fish are unconcerned about the light.

JoandWilly Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 How many T5's would you need to run on a tank 100x60x45? and do they need to be the special marine T5's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifty Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 i have the same stock as petplanet but also an anemone, it is doing ok but not thriving(could be as I havent changed the bulbs in 2 years), my new tank has t5's that are approx 500 w of power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
