I'm getting so frustrated with the Saltwater Forum I'm also a part of. I've posted two threads in the past two days about lighting for my tank and I'm getting NO responses. Some threads will have over 500 responses in this forum and I can't get a single one!!!! It's frustrating.

Just ask chrona. Hes a lighting genious. Or reptile guy, or demon shark.

I'm good with lighting for plants. For saltwater stuff, I still mostly defer to the almighty www.google.com

I've looked all over there. I just don't know enough about what I have is the problem. All I know is I have live rock, whether it's soft hard coral friendly nice caring, lol, I've got no clue. I emailed Marinedepot.com to see if a customer service rep would help me if I bought the stuff through them. see if that works haha!

I'm not talkin about this forum, everyone is super helpful here. It's another one that I'm on that has a whole thing dedicated to lighting, I was thinking at least one person would know.

Maybe it's my fault though for not knowing enough about what I have. Blah... with every fantastic deal on a tank, there's still confusion to go along with that deal.

Well I can help you with the basics. First off, I suggest setting a budget. We'll work from there, since salt water gets expensive REAL fast, especially for a student.

Alright, let's put the budget at $200 with a $50+/- leeway

And what equipment do you have already? Salt, hygrometer (or was it hydrometer - the thing that measures specific gravity), powerhead(s), saltwater test kit?
