So after i get back from further training and in a stable place i'm planning on setting up a 30gal salt. At least i think its a 30....30L maybe? Anyways, i'm trying to gather most of the equipment now, or at least have a general idea of the direction i am going so when i get back its basically plug and play.
I've come to the lighting portion of the setup. I know i'll be wanting to keep a variety of coral in the tank, especially SPS. Thus, i want MH's.
One question i have is would you suggest something like 2 150w MHs over a tank like mine? 36" long and about 16-17" deep. MHs generally have a 24" light spread right? I figured going up to 250w's would be overkill?
Oh an i am looking at retrofits, none of this fancy and expensive complete hood system things. I want lights that i could possibly use on an upgrade tank later on too. Just incase, you know how it is.
2 150ws on a 30gal? Yes, no, maybe?
