Which Fixture Would You Recommend for a 40 Gallon Breeder?

[Myka]

Wouldn't it cost less to buy a single pendant like a Lumenarc? They are about $160, plus your choice of ballast and bulb. If you don't want to keep SPS, then you likely don't need the big guns, but the single Lumenarc reflector should do a good job covering that tank.

If you're stuck on getting two, then go for PFO mini HQI pendants. they are $120 each, plus ballast (you can get a dual ballast), plus bulbs.

I think the Lumenarc would be your cheapest route. Think of all the T5 bulbs you'll have to buy!
