Nova Extreme T-5 Lighting Fixture w/Lunar lights (48") Question

[Pats1221]

Will the Nova Extreme T-5 Fixture w/Lunar lights (48") be suitable for a Blue Maxima Clam - Aquaculture?

My Tank: 75 Gallons, 48in long, about 18" Tall... will this Nova light be categorized as 'high lighting' @ the bottom of my tank so the blue maxima could survive? Wouldn't a Halide light be too strong for other coral vs. this nova extreme?

And another question while I'am at it... could a Blue Maxima Clam live in peace with a Serpent Sea Star, Fancy Red?:sfish:

Would it be best to have a halide light or a nova extreme in terms of most variety and selection of corals/reefs? :frustrat:

THANKS!!:D

I have a Crocea clam. I am switching from a MH to a t5 setup. Actually buying the Nova Extreme 6 bulb configuration. Can't go wrong with t5, better heat distribution, better bulb selection(more configurations), etc.

I can tell you FOR SURE how it is if you give me two or so weeks. My fixture comes in at the end of the week for my 55g.

If this T-5 Aquarium Lighting: Nova Extreme T-5 Fixtures w/Lunar Lights is the light your asking about.Then the answer is yes.
I used to run that fixture on my old 75 and never had any problems related to light with anything I wanted to keep,including clams and anemones.

You are better off using T5s for a 75 gallon tank.

There ain't nothing wrong with A Halide Light Fixture either.

i like halides too. nothing like the shimmer from a MH. and you can get any type of coral u want with halides also.

Both will work.
