I have a 55g FO tank with a little live rock. My lights consist of 2-18w flourescants (sp?). I want to upgrade. My objective for the upgrade is to do only a few things: Improve the appearance of the tank and fish, be able to grow corralline and sustain live rock, possibly obtain anenome for my clown fish and I like feather dusters (have no idea what kind but I may look into that). I'm not looking at going into a full blown reef tank right now.
As I look at power compact lighting I have found a few different systems that seem comparable.these systems can be purchased in a 130 or 260wattage output in 48". Will I be able to do what I want to do with the 130w lights or should I go ahead with the 260? the price doubles with the output.
I think my tank depth is around 18", its a normal 55g tank.
I appreciate your help.
