littlenano Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I have a 24 gallon aquapod i have had it for years and i need to get new lights but i am not sure what i want to get. Should i get new bulbs for the hood or should i get some t5 for the tank? i don't try to grow crazy corals i just like zoa's and things like that. i would like some advice and some opinions on lights. thanks in advance for any help.

jgf86123 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 for an aquapod? I'd suggest a K2 Viper 150w MH clip on, that will rock that tank and since we all end up changing our minds, it will allow you to keep the hard stuff as well lol.

grassi Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 It depends of you want to keep the hood or go without. Topless=more water/air exchange, but also more evaporation. T5 are a good option, especially now that the new small units are on the market (pm tanktop74, she used to have them on a Solana). You will keep the heat under control, unless you already have a chiller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
