Lighting a 48lx13wx18h

[sepulvd]

What would you guys suggest to light a tank that's 13ins wide but 48inches long. Currently just have LPS and softies and a carpet anemone

A simple t5 fixture with 2 or 4 bulbs.

Bulk reef supply has some great deals on T5 fixtures right now.

The Giesmann 4x54 (48") is $450 and that's normally $600.

The ATI sunpower 4X54 is $400 and that's nornally $470.

I would highly recommend either of those brands/models. Either of the two would be cheaper than two leds fixtures.

I was trying find dimensions for the geismann I think it's wider then my tank

Fixtures with 54 watt bulbs are 48" long. I believe the giesmann and ATI are designed to for hanging, not tank mounted. I have an aquaticlife 4x54watt tank mounted fixture on my 75 gallon. It does the job but in a league below giesmann or ATI.
