So I'm in the process of plumbing my wife's dad's tank and I need to start thinking about lights. For reference the tank is 48x24x24, he will have Zoas, candycane, softies and possibly other LPS. I already have some VHO lights, minus the lamps and would like to use them for the easy of install, maintenance, and heat. He will never get into SPS or other high light corals cause I will be maintaining the tank and won't put them in there. VHOs okay on a 24" tank without any SPS? If so, how many and what combo of bulbs should I run?
Thanks,
Joe
