I would say no because most halogens have low kelvin ratings and the light they put off is too yellow/red to sustain coral growth. Go with a 14,000K HQI metal halide with supplemental VHO actinics if you want the best color and a lighting fixture capable of keeping the most light demanding organisms (SPS, clams, anemones, etc...)
The halogen elements in the periodic table are found in Group 17:Flourine(F),Chlorine(Cl),Bromine(Br) and Astatine(At).
The light which comes from Florescent tubes is called COOL LIGHT. Another example is L.E.D. lights as well. The light other than Halogen Lights is cool because Halogen Light is warm light.
Depending on the degree of hyposalinity, or your definition of "too much salt", it could kill the tank inhabitants.
The bacteria living in and on live rock and sand.
Check the package, it will tell you if it can be used for these bulbs. Be careful of compact florescent.
Halogen work lights, also called tungsten lights, are bright lights for illuminating a large work area. One great company that makes high-quality halogen work lights is Sunnex, Inc.
I would like to buy some bathroom halogen lights. What is the price range of such items?
Halogen light glows and LED is dull.
This is entirely dependant on the size of the reef tank and the equipment you choose to run it. I would estimate however that the average reef aquarium of between 40 and 90 US gallons uses somewhere in the neighborhood of 500-600 watts during the day(more due to lights), and about ~300 watts at night.
Typically halogen.
No.
A reef tank requires special care and attention. You will need special salt water, as well as advanced filters. Then you need to let the reef tank run until it is balanced.
Halogen lights can be bought at brick and mortar retailers such as Homebase. Alternatively one could use online sites such as Amazon or even on eBay to buy these.
if it's those blue lights dont use them there iliegell
Halogen Bulbs
Yes. There are various types of dimmers. Look for the halogen dimmer in your favorite search engine.
