If you guys had a 40g tank, which lights would you get?

Tank dimensions would be helpful as well as what you plan to keep.

 

[Coralover]

tank dimensions are: 36"L 18W 19T, I just did the tank volume calculations here at RC and I think it said it was 43g not 40.

I would like to keep SPS and the common corals like xenia, etc.
I have T5's(4 39w), but the only thing I don't like about them is that I don't get the shimmer effects.

In your case, get the LC3 mini.

You'll need to call as they're not listed on the site.

 

[Coralover]

Do you know how mcuh they cost and how much watts it is?

 

[xabo]

Both are the same price. Watts are determined by the ballast you use.

What do you mean "Both"?
I just wanna know the price for the one ridetheducati said I should get.I have no idea what the price is since it's not listed on the site like mentioned.

They have a large one= 19.5x19.5, and the mini= 14.5x14.5.

You don't know the price for neither of them do you?

Thanks

This depends on how colorful you want your corals plus using 3 will give you the choice of using mixed bulbs. Personally I would go with two 400w 20k on the ends with a 14k in the middle.

Start with two mounted 10-12 inches high. If you need more coverage or intensity, get a third LA3 and lower all reflectors to 9 inches.
