I am going to echo and disagree with some here at 24" deep a normal 250 is not enuf for high light corals unless they are all in the top 1/2 of the tank. a good guide line is 18" 250 watt, 24" 250 HQI or 400 watt. I would recomend the 250 watt HQI over the 400 watt and I would also sugest you get normal 250 watt single ended bulbs and only the HQI ballast.
