saltwater aquarium light
if I have live rock in my saltwater aquarium Do I need special lights?

or can I use the standard lights that come in the hood? if not can u tell me what kind of rocks and I like my tank need to 30g, it will have about 40 pounds of live rock

I think a lightbulb has a spectrum of 18,000 K is suitable for live rock. So I would suggest investing in that. Probably I should be getting 20 pounds of live rock and 20 pounds more than in other type porous rocks. Lava rock, dead coral rock and other surfaces that have finally texured lives in time.
