Posted	lighting?
15-03-2006 18:38 by luke	hi im back again with another question, ive been looking at the i bar for my rio 240 but then i saw that arcadia do an overtank luminaire which i can suspend from the ceiling, which is better and what one do i need for my tank also i have been lookin at metal halides but havent got a clue where to start with them if i went for halides i want some actnic blue tubes with it as well any info on these would be good as well, also would i need a chiller if i went for metal halides?
15-03-2006 20:07 by Dagda	i put arcadia t5 flip lighting on my rio tank and am happy woth it put it does depend on what corals you want to keep
15-03-2006 20:12 by Dagda	Hmmmmmmmmmm that didnt work still new to this let me try the old way
15-03-2006 22:15 by luke	i want some soft corals and maybe an anemone, is this the lighting u have dagda

Once all the live rock is in very slowly acclimatise an anemone and let this settle comfortably before adding any other corals as they do tend to move around looking for a place to call home the bubble anemone is the easiest to keep but they do tend to hide away they like to inhabit cracks in rock work whilst other are happy out in the open.
