power compact lights?
Hi, i am thinking about getting a 130 watt fixture for my 37 gallon tank. I am a high school student with a major budget lol. Would this 130 watt which contains one actinic and one 10,000k white (i think) be suitable for an anemone and any corals?

Yes, just make sure the water is clear. pc lights are often under rated, there infact great lighting

you might try this.....
www.current-usa.com they make some lights that are inexpensive but have (good) value to the light themselves..... I picked up this one for 100.00 http://www.current-usa.com/products/satellite.html |

Most anemones prefer high wattage lighting, so choose them wisely!(there are some which don't).This said, there are many things that can be kept under 130w pc (I have a very nice green hammer coral doing well under this same light on same size tank!)
