Elegance under Metal Halides?

[HKSTurbo28]

I was wondering if anyone has kept an Elegance successfully under metal halide lighting?

If so, could you list:

1) Metal halide wattage and color spectrum
2) Height of tank
3) Where the Elegance was placed in the tank


Thanks!

best place to keep them is in the substrate. moderate to low water flow and MH, HQI in the 14K's would work

On that issue I wouldn't be too prescriptive because my experience is that depending on the origin the would be happy with more or less light.

Mine is a neon green one from Australia and is doing very well 40 cm under 150W HWI 14000ºK Even the two dauthers it has are doing very well 80 cm from the light point.
