I am so confused with all the lighting options out there, I am getting stressed with days of researching and trying to understand the benefits of MH, LED and T5's, wattage, lumins, pars, which is good for corals or not.. my head hurts!!
At this point, I want someone to just say "This is the one for you" and that's that- I hope you guys can do just that? Here's some info of what I need help with.. (thank you in advance!)
• JBJ 28 gal nanocube (18"x22"x22"H)- I am planning on going rim-less on this tank. the hood is going away.
• Right now I have mostly softies (Zoas mainly)- I want to be able to have more variety- and possibly some stony.
• I do not want to hang the light from my ceiling or wall.. but putting it on a gooseneck or something that clips on the back of the tank will work for me, as well as some with legs.
• $100-200 budget, hoping to stay on the lower end.
• Does not have to be programmable- but separate plugs for day/night would be awesome.
• As of now, the top will be open until I can figure out how to make a clear lid to prevent any suicides (another topic, but if you can help, let me know?)
thank you for helping, I look forward to any and all advice! If you need more info, please do let me know and I'll be happy to answer
