Opinions for lighting a small coral qt/grow out tank
Yesterday I just put my order in at concept for a new tank. It will be a rimless polished 24x22x14 tank with a 5 inch sump section in the back for heater/pump/carbon and a compartment for extra live rock. The display section is 24x17x14. Lol I have everything picked but my lighting. I was almost 100% set on a MH setup but now I am second guessing myself wondering if T5 or Led would be a better option. The tank is going to be in the kitchen on the counters peninsula so whatever lighting I go with needs to look pretty lol. It is definitely one of the colder parts of the house in winter so extra heat is not a concern theb but in summer it may be more of an issue. What are people's opinions for my lighting options? Personal experiences with each type ect? If I went with T5 4 or 6 bulb? Oh and it will have sps, lps and some sofies in it. Thanks in advance.
