![]() You'll need more than PC's for SPS. Lots of people end up upgrading their lighting as they decide after the tank has been going for a while that they want to try SPS. Sorry I don't have any experience with MH on small tanks but the only issue I could see is the heat issue mentioned above.

![]() A 150 probably will be OK on a 33 with a few fans. That or the T-5s there is some nice tanks with those on them.
I would go with 4 of those though as your atinics don't provide a lot of the right light. Here is my 40 with 4 T-5s. Not the best picture and only the actinics are on. ![]()

![]() Here is my 25 with 250 DE but I run a chiller as heat is a problem. My fuge has a 175 SE and it runs a lot cooler than my DE.
Hope that helps you out a bit. ![]()
