Lights for frag tank

trainman123 · 07/12/2020, 09:23 PM

I'm new to thus hobby and I'm starting a frag tank to sell my corals cause they've gotten a little to big for my tank. What would be the best kind/brand of lights for a 30 gallon breeder frag tank?

Personally I like AI Primes. Have one paired with a Kessil A80 on my 29 gallon and had good success with it. Growing everything from soft corals to easy acros and montipora. You could go with kessils but I like the controlability the primes have.

Thankyou for the recommendation I'll look into them. Right now I'm starting to frag green star polype and pulsing xenia.

We have grown everything up to an including Acros with the Visparspectra CBB.
We don’t need to pay for special effects when growing corals, just light in the correct intensity and spectrum.
