Hey everyone,
I am planning on buying the 36" Aquamedic Ocean Light 2 x 150 Watt MH + 2 x 39 T5 for my 38 gallon aquarium (36x12x19). Right now there is only some zoo's and green stars in my tank but I plan on doing LPS/Softies. A clam would be nice too.
What combination of lightbulbs would you suggest for this setup? I want something that has some blue so colors really pop, but not too much. Would you suggest 14k's for the MH and 50/50's for the t5, or something like 14ks, 1 50/50 and a blue....Etc..etc.
Keep in mind I would prefer to make a mistake with the the T5's and not the MH's, since the t5 bulbs are much cheaper
Thanks,
Dale
