Metal halide Questions
General question about lighting to see what some of you are using.
I am trying to decide what kelvin bulb to go with for a new 400 watt metal halide system I am ordering. I am currently running two 10k 175watt bulbs on the left and right side of my 180 gallon tank. For the center I will install the 400watt for Lps and Sps corals that need the brighter light. I also have 3 Vho actinics under the canopy. Would a lower kelvin bulb be beneficial ? or would it be better to stay with the 10k trend. Any info or thoughts would be appreciated on this subject. Stan

stay with the 10K if you like the look. lower K doesn't realy translate into better growth as lighting is just one part of the whole thing.
