Jesse it is a lot and I'm still kinda tossing the idea around. In the thread I started regarding coral colour, it seems we ended up with "wattage may or may not affect colour". However all the corals I have and will be procurring for this tank are under 400s now, and I'm not sure I want to drop too much. If I do go with a 250, it will be at least 10" above the tank...

with 250 or 400 MH over that I would think you will need a chiller.

he could do a 250 watt in an enclosed fixture above the tank and it wouldent impart much heat at all (if any) to the tank.
