Puffer Chick's 46 Gallon Bowfront Reef

haha i know i can't wait to finally get this tank going, i hope since the tank is almost done cycling it will finnish fast. I may get the CUC first so that way my dad can work on making the eggcrate fit the tank.

 

Also will the fish be ok with normal flourescent lighting that came with the tank, i have to pay off my c.c and purchase a few things before i get my light, i know i would have to wait on corals, but would the fish be ok with basic lighting

oh one more thing, out of the fish listed above what would be a good order to put them in?

 

ANy order really they are all community fish. Also yea fish will be fine with normal lighting!!

 

ok i'll see if they have the light that i'm getting on reefgeek its $400 *not including shipping* so hopefully i can find it somewhere a bit cheaper

 

what type of light are you getting?

 

the 4x39 tek t5 High output light fixture

 

They have a 3 foot T5ho 4 bulb set up for 139, jsut replace the bulbs with name brand bulbs and you will be all set

 

are the bulbs usually expensive? i think the one on reefgeek is expensive because it comes with the bulbs

 

Pufferchick.... Ive been keeping up with your tank thread... Your tank brings up a lotta memories. I started my reefing with a 46 gallon bowfront. Even had the same stand you have. I know lotsa people are pullin for you to have great success. Im one of em

 

This one from them also comes with the bulbs, but they arent amazing, if you bought teh one for 140 and bought 4 bulbs your looking at about 230 TOTAL with up graded bulbs. My buddy have the four foot verison over his 75 and can keep sps at the top of the tank with no problems
