hi guys, my new tank is 1.5 by 700wide and 800 deep, just want to know what metal halide to get , 150 or 250 w?
can you send me a pic of that metal halide, think i ill go for the 250 w then,Then I would go for the 250w so you can raise it bit higher to get a wider spread of light.
Not too sure which are the best or cheapest, I can remember Dorry Pets advertised some with the lumenarc reflector, have a look in their forum.
That can work, the advantage with that one is you have the control gear and reflector/pendant all in one, simply plug it in and it works. I have used one of these exact same ones before, their spread of light isn't too bad, you will have to run it sideways though, sort of left to right if you know what I mean.what about the radiant ls154-floodlight-die-cast-outdoor 150 w

If you are going to run your 18000 and 20000K T5's then that will be fine. Should give you nice whitish/blueish colour to the water.from all the reading and understanding, that a 10000k bulp would be best
