If it were me I'd want something dimmable so it's flexible enough for either corals or fish

Currently on my 20g QT I use a 15w old school fixture for fish, and I have an old 48w PC fixture for corals

Lol cause it's not just the original pc bulbs at the moment until I figure out lighting.. Don't need High light to cycle. If I put a 250 watt on it it would melt the plastic hood lol
