I was told that I should get 2-250's for the sides if I was looking at keeping softies in the tank as well...apparently 3- 400W halides would be too much unless I just keep sps's and lps's. The toadstool is 12 inches tall and I was plannig on placing near the bottom which would give approx. 12 inches of water and 6 inches of air between it and the halides...I would prefer to go all 400's, but I want to keep leathers etc. as well

What are the dimensions of the tank? I light my 5 foot long 150 with two 400W and that seems to be the best configuration.
