Alright thanks man... Would the 20 000k give off less lumans tho? Cos I read earlier on this tread that 20k gives off less lumans than the 10k. Lil confused about that :-\
You could keep pretty much anything you want under that lighting, although because the lights are only 4ft and you have a 6ft tank, the last 30cm's or so at each end of the tank will have a lot less light, so concentrate most of your corals directly underneath your light unit.hi
some advise please just need to know if my lighting is sufficient
dimension 1800x600x600
only easy corals not much
2 x 150wt mh 20 000k
4 x 54wt t5 10 000k
2 x 54wt t5 actnic blue
Where are you going to get half a MH from?
Hi len,How frequent do I have to replace a MH bulb?
250w is a lot of light for a 40cm tank, but it will still work if you really want it, if you can mount it higher than the 150w then you should be fine, especially as your corals may get light shock from the extra light. Are you able to raise your lighting?hi there, MY tank is 40cm high I have 150watts MH at the moment but a nicer unit is for sale but it is 250 watts , Is it to much ? plz help asap
i am still a fan of T5, trying LEDS, on that size i would look at orphek DIF's they pack a punch like 400w MH
check my tank thread last page, there is a pic of mineorphek DIF's..?
so here we go... looking at re-doing my lighting...
tank.. 2m x 65cm x 75cm (water level at 71cm) lighting installed 35cm above water level...
currently a mix of softies n sps, but hopefully move towards more sps with the help of better lighting.
i currently run 2 x 150w mh, 4 x 39w, 4 x 54w, 2 x 80w (all t5's)....
i'd love to go led.. but the price, the price.....?
so.. any1 have an opinion..?
