:idea::idea:so here it is i found a great deal on a 110 on craigslist so i stoped by the lfs and was talking about lighting the tanks is 31" and we had talked about MH because of the depth but then he also mentioned that i could run a 4 bulb t5 kit on it and id just have to have my higher light demanding corals higher in the tank
with that said do you think 4 would be enough?
and also i have put together a list of a combo with MH and T5 retro kit off of BRS i dont have the t5 bulbs included because im not sure which one is want yet tell me what you think and if i could get this stuff cheaper anywhere else
Single Mogul Socket $9.50 X2 $19.00
Lumatek 250w ELECTRONIC REMOTE BALLAST $124.99 X2 $249.98
15 FT Lamp Cord 16 GA W-Male P $11.99 X2 $23.98
Wire Suspension Hanging Kit - 2 Point Connection $29.99 X2 $29.99
250 Watt XM 15k Single-Ended Mogul Metal Halide Bulb $64.99 X2 $129.98 54W 48" T5 RETROFIT KIT Tek Sunlight Supply $127.99 $127.99
thats the system i thought of i could add another set of T5's if you all think i need to or do you think i should just buy something like the 6 bulb T5 tek fixture?
thanks i know its kinda long just have a ton of ?'s
