Hi again,

StirCrazy, Makes sense about building it myself. I was only considering the 3 x 175s setup because I have access to one of these units at a great price. However, if it is not adequate and I have to go with another configuration, then that deal couldn't help me. Thanks for the info.

Namscam, YO - WORD *makes weird hand gestures, pulls pants down too far, turns his baseball cap around diagonally and wraps his arms around his chest* S'up wit dat?
- Sorry, I must be too old - I have no idea what you meant.

asmodeus, you wrote,

i dont know why people would go to have 3 MH where you could have 2 Mh over a 6' tank.
Thanks for the insight, I didn't even know that was an option. I was under the impression that MH was only adequate for 4 square feet (a 2' by 2' area). This is great feedback.

Clearly, I am not ready to make an informed decision yet.
The whole purpose of this thread was to get a better grip on what my options are... Rather than learning from my mistakes.

Any more thoughts?
Bear in mind - I'm a freshie and this will be my first SW setup, so I am new to this whole MH lighting stuff.

Thanks in Advance.
Paul.
