I finally purchased a set of 250w MH for my 120g.
My motivation for doing so was for several different reasons, the main two being:
a) sick and tired of being told "you can't have that because of your lights!" and
b) I have a HUGE riteri anemone (at least 1'6" in diameter when very happy) that I want to keep happy. I have had it for about a year and half if not longer now and feel that more light will keep it healthy.
I do not know what combination to use with the MH and my vho's. I thought about converting my vho's (ice cap ballast 660) to t5's but do not know what watt or brand to go with, the MH's currently has a 15k HQI de bulb in it (what bult do I go with on this one also - I don't like the yellow hue some bulbs give).
I am hoping some of you who know more about lighting will be able to help me figure what combo might work best!... (I really like the bluer look of the actinics)
The rest of my tank is mostly leathers, a cap, huge bubble coral, croacea clam, zoa's, shrooms, huge frog spawn. thanks in advance
