I want to set up a 10g frag tank, I have everything I need but the lights. I'd prefer to keep cheap beginner corals and I'm thinking a T5 should be good. Any ideas/brands?
 
You should not have cheap lighting for your frag tank. You really need the best light so you can have the frags at their best so they will have gray value for what ever you want to do with them. Several high price coral frag is all you need to recoup the investment on the light. If you are tight on cash then keep the frag in your DT. If you want worthwhile frags the the fragtank light should be better than your DT light

You will not be able to move poorlooking frags.
 
Thanks for the answer, I'll start saving up now. Can you recommend a light? I'd prefer to keep it under $100
 
It's just a 10g anyways, so that's why I'm thinking it'll be cheaper (smaller light)
