I know most corals dont need alot of light either do anemones. There are a few sebeas i know in a 48 inch deeps with only a 150 watt halide and a few no actinic running it. I mean the only colour on that anemone is the purple tips but it grows. I think i will do a 48 inch long 40 gallon tank. This will make the tank 18 inches wide and deep. That will be plenty room for rockwork and coral growth. I cant wait to get this thing started. But me like i said i am going to use my halide (175 watts) and my pc's for 10, 000K. Then i have 2 30 watt phillips blue bulbs i can use those for blue light. if all these lights run on the correct timer and skillfuly placed i am hoping w will have a nice tank. I was cruising around this site and fell in love with Dez's 180 gal but i dont think i can afford 1700 bucks right now.
