i am not sure about my lightning is enough... the shop owner has seen my tank.. and he said "it's enough", well i am asking you guys right now.... need more exp here.. hehehe
my tank is 60 gal, add rock, sand , etc become 49 gal
my lightning in tat yellow house are 1 day light (white color) 20 w, 1 blue light 20 w, 2 blue light 9 w each (total 18 watt) and in the front (got black tape one) 1 blue light 9 watt.

well.... my tank actually fish only design.... but i want to add coral into it... so already add 3 blue light 9 w....

i think i need around around 20-30 watt more.... how do you thinks guys...
well got problem about the space also.... and the light .. so it's need to add light or enough?

can u get a picture of the bulbs maybe. and typically for corals u want 3+ watts per gallon.

hard to get a clear shot... so it's not so clear for you to see
i am using philips 20 w for white lightning.... and red sun blue lightning 20w (use for marine tanks)
another 2 is 9w blue lightning.... it's around 12000k... it's said
