I know for sure this is an 8 gallon. I measured the dimensions and it came out to be 8. Also i have a 10 gallon and this tank is only slightly smaller. I don't know if this is a finnex tank. I don't remember saying that but if i did sorry. Any more questions and i'm happy to answer them.

hmmk, the bulbs Dual Reef Compact Fluorescent Lamp supplies 7,400K Daylight (which simulates bright light on a sunny tropical day) on one half and the other half 14,000K True Actinic (providing blue light for photosynthetic corals).

also, my reasoning for it bein a finnex was the logo/nnex on the tank light picture.

Ya the light would work for soft corals.

Ya This is true. The 7.4 k will allow good growth for corals while the atinics just make the corals have a nicer color to them.

K sorry. The fixture only has one bulb which is called a 50/50. This is because it has the white light along with the atinic light all into one bulb. Basically it is 2 bulbs into one. The whole thing is 10k which will allow for good growth but also very nice color with the atinic light in there.

Sorry but I am no longer interested. I have my own tank which is much cheaper to set up then that. Plus you used a picture for another tank which confuzzled me when looking its other stats up.

Alright that's fine with me. The pic is not from another tank by the way. That is the exact tank. Good luck with your tank
