I am in the process of starting a fish and live rock tank of 20g and at
some point wish to convert to a reef tank. Will be using 20w 6500k x2
for lighting.Would this be adequate for a reef tank of 20g? Any ideas or
recommendations are welcome. Thanx- Steven

Hi Steven,

No, that won't be sufficient. You are going to want VHO or PCs for your tank.
I'd suggest PCs, but you'll have to buy the smaller ones because the standard
length is 22" long. Your tank is likely 20" long.

Visit my site (linked below) to see the lighting over my 29g.
