There's nothing like halides on a frag tank where growth is the main concern.

I use the same lights that I have on my display tank. That way everything is the same colour and there is no risk of light shocking a frag by moving it back and forth. I also save a few bucks by using the 12 month old bulbs from my display tank on my frag tank for another 6 months.

My lights are 14K 250W DE Phoenix inside Lumenmax 3's run with HQI ballasts.

Use the same kind of light you would light your display....
