what lighting would you use?

Personally I wouldn't waste your cash on a marineland led fixture. Cheaply made to say the least. Id go with an AI SOL or even some ecoxotic panorama pro modules would work great in my opinion


Martin @ modularled.ca is a wicked guy to deal with and could give you tons of options on a shallow tank. Great service, free chocolates with any order what more could you ask lol
Good luck in your hunt for lights

Zetlight does have a good reputation for that price but yah, the spread is not something to be bragged about.

True you don't need a strong light but most of us reefers will tell you as ways think ahead because you will upgrade your tank once your hooked.

Here's one in Victoria for sale
