| Re: Need lighting suggestions for a 40 gal Tank. It really depends what types of corals (if any) you would like to keep?

| Re: Need lighting suggestions for a 40 gal Tank. Break out the wallet & get MH or a T-5 set up. If you decide on T-5 be sure to get individual reflectors on the bulbs rather than one reflector covering all of them. You should be able to keep any type of coral.
