Icon14 Lighting needs for Nano sps/ clam tank.
Ok,

Starting a new "nano" tank. Looking for optimum lighting for Acro, and Montopora. And Clams. Looking for good growth, but most importantly long life. The tank will only be 12-16 inches deep.

temperature wise Im looking to 10,000k-actinic, or 16,000 K-actinic. Vho, Ho, or power compact? Need suggestions.
