12g AquaPod Zoa Tank Lighting

[jonbar1]

Hello fellow Zoa nuts!

My 12g AquaPod has become more of a zoa tank over the months, and with how much I've spent on getting my favorites, I want the best possible light I can give them.

I am seriously considering getting the 150w SunPod for them, mostly so I can get the Phoenix 14k bulb. Would this be too much light for them? I could get the 70w instead, but want the best light possible for them.

Thanks In Advance!

Jon

There are quite a few threads on this forum that talk about lighting changes for 12 gallon tanks. You can tell which thread by looking at the thread names- most have been named after the tanks they are for. I'd also send those guys a pm and ask them, since they have been researching it for their own tanks!

Welcome Jon! The 70watt would work but I dont think they make a 14k phoenix bulb. I think the 150watt sunpod would work well, as long as your able to keep the temp from getting to high.
