Maybe tell us the dimensions :question: And FYI, I light my 33 G semi cube (24"X18"X18") with one 175W MH pendant.

150 DE HQI MH would be fairly sweet.

IMHO, YMMV, EIEIO.

what are the dimensions of the tank?
what do you want to keep in it?
any supplemental lighting?

i am planning on a 45 cubish tank...24x24x18H
and i'm gonna light it with a single 250W DE MH 14k.

most likely be mushroom dominated, some zoos, clams and a few select sps.

I light my 37G Oceanic Cube-like tank (IIRC 24"x21"x19") with a 250W DE 20000K AB bulb. Works fine for me!
