Light advice
I need a light for a 20 gallon tank clownfish breeder (fish only), i was thinking about going with a t5ho light but how many bulbs would i need? Would 2 be sufficient? Also what color, i was thinking 50/50 10,000k and 453 blue actinic?

Im not sure the type of light really matter for a FO tank... Maybe the breeding aspect would require a certain light cycle but the actual type of light I dont belive would matter

You could light it with a candle if it's Fish Only.
If I were you I would get a cheap led bar 16k-20K..
