oh my, if you don't have MH lights GET THEM

[gfk]

I just received my 15k 150 watt HQI light from hello lights, along with 2 24" t5 actinics.

I held the MH over my tank for like 30 seconds (i'm building a canopy) and my god my corals looked 100000x better.

i can't wait to get the canopy done this weekend

Same here. I like low heat, low cost, low electric bill

24" coral life 130 watt PC. it was on my 20, but i have a 29 now, and its not enough light, corals are suffering.

unfortunately, i just built my hood today at my friends cabinet shop, and realized that we made it a half inch too short on length.

luckily it was just out of particle board i was gonna paint... looks like ill have to go back tomorrow and make a new one
