I'm getting ready to run a 400 gallon plastic tank to house 1000lbs. of live rock that will filter 5 100 gallon frag tanks and my 200 gallon display tank. What are the lighting requirements for a live rock only tank? I know I need to have lighting for the rock tank but what spectrum lighting and Kelvin rating is best for live rocks?
Also, while were on the subject, my system will also run through a 200 gallon tank that will serve as the DSB while also housing mangrove trees, Chaeto, Gracillaria and other plants. What spectrum lighting will serve best for the refugium. Is it a good idea to have a strip of Pro-Pink lighting for the plants?
Any help would be appreciated!
