lighting for dummies 101
Man this is great! You guys know all this stuff! Ok so the MH setup is 2 Iwasaki 250 watt ballasts and 2 6500K bulbs. Now I thought this means that I have to stick with Iwasaki bulbs. I was looking at the price of the 10000K and man, I'm gonna have to get a second job to support this habit! At least I get the 6500K ones to start although I don't know how old they are. Its only a 48G tank and 18" deep so I don't need 10W/gal for my softies, unless I get into SPS which after making this purchase I am going to be broke for awhile. Thats good that I only need the NO actinics. I like the idea of getting something for only $15 in this business [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] This setup is not going to be used right away anyway, I still have to get a buttload of aragonite sand and at $50 a bag here plus needing more LR I need to wait and amass some fundage first. I'm just excited and making sure that I'm not just getting this because its a good deal (I'm one of those impulse buyer types).
Thanks
Christy
