lighting for a 29gl

[addam4208283]

i need some help making my final decision on lighting for my 29gl nano tank. what would work best out of the two set ups (20" 223W Metal Halide Fixture & Ballast System (3 power cords version)) or a (orbit 2X65w (1) 65w Dual Daylight and (1) 65w Dual Actinic) or a (30" Coralife Aqualight Dual Linear Strip (130W Total) w/ 2X 65W -Bulbs are offset -Comes with two 50/50 bulbs)

thanks again

the only problem that i am having is finding a light that will fit a 29 with mounting legs attached. if anyone can find a better alt. could you please point me in the right direction.

thanks

Personally, I like Current USA lighting products (The first link).
And that is a real nice fixture for a 29G tank.

MH......the only reason I don't have it (and why I think others that don't have it also don't) is money.........

ah do you mean the first one?

MH setups can be reto'd together often cheaper than PC setups.A single 250wMH can be done for $125.As for your tank,how long is a 29?

David, A 29G is 30" in length.

I had to edit my post that said "the second link" Unless those links changed, I made a mistake and should have said I would prefer the one in the First link!
