lighting for 10g frag tank

[steve fedyk]

I'm building a frag tank and was looking for some ideas for lighting. Its a standard size 10g tank, plumped into the main system.

You're probably looking at either halide or LED given the size, unless it's 2 feet long then T5s would also be an option. Guessing that it's for SPS I would probably go with a 24 LED retro kit.

Aqua traders has a 20 inch long t5 light with 4 bulbs at 18 watts a bulb . Its around 45 $ for the light and probably another 10 for shipping inside the states .

Why not do a 15gal 24x12x12 for a frag tank. opens up the option of t5's

My space is only 17" wide. I'm thinking of going diy leds, with custom heat skin.

Where is some good places to buy leds

steves led has cheaper leds than most , there not crees , but the output is still going to be good for alot less.

you could consider going with some of the par38 lamps on nanotuners.
