![]() The cheapest route would be to try and squeeze and few T5s in with the teklight, but going all out with 250W MH with retrofit T5s for actinics is the best long term keep anything you want solution.
I second checking out Joshi's results. Careful selection of bulb/ballast along with good reflectors can save you a lot of electricity and heat while still giving you very good PAR. |

![]() don't mean to hijack the thread, but i have a 24" deep tank and i am planning on running 1 X 250 MH HQI + 2 X 65w PC's, will that be sufficient for SPS and (hopefully) calms? total tank size is 24" wide X 24" tall X 18" deep (front to back)
