    Lighting question

    Hi Rob -- Love the show -- and as a broadcaster it's been great to watch your growth as a communicator! If I can grow half as fast as a reefer I'll be happy.

    I posted the following question on the forums -- thinking I had put it here where you address questions on the air. I'm learning a lot about lighting -- but I'd like you to address a little about how that transfers into the life in the tank.

    Here is my specific question:

    I've enjoyed the two sessions on lighting. Now I finally understand how they do that 50/50 thing! I have a 96 watt power compact on my 29 gallon nano tank. My softies (xenia, leather, etc.) are doing well under it -- but the bulbs are designed for freshwater. When I replace them should I go for one 50/50 and one 10K? Or what? Are there any hard corals that might thrive in this tank until I upgrade to metal halides?
