    The master of purple! Splendid coralline, I will absolutely take your advice on kalk! What lighting do you use in this setup?

    Yeah, I'm definitely interested! Trying to figure out if fluorescent is the way I want to go.

    I have to say, I like t5ho. I like LED for certain reasons but you have to have $$$$ to spend on the top fixtures to get the right LED

    I had 4 t5ho bulbs on my 55g and the colour and growth was amazing. There wasn't a single unhappy inhabitant, I never questioned wether I had enough lighhting and the bulbs lit the whole tank.
