Lighting/Metal Halide Q's

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yeah, I did. I don't have internet access at home so it takes me a while to respond some times. If the fixture had a ballast I would consider it, but I am thinking I will likely pick up two 250 W pendants from fishneedit.com when they have more in stock. Or two 150 W from them if I get impatient waiting for the 250's! lol
 
it will probably be 150 W's. I emailed therm to find out when they would have the 250's in stock...they won't have them until May! I don't think I can wait that long!
 
Its worth the wait if that is what you think you really need man. Otherwise its pretty much a waste of money. I think that I am going to have to upgrade my two 150's on my 125g to 250's.

Truth.
 
Ok. I have decide on a MH retro kit from hellolights.com

I am going to be running Pheonix 14k bulbs.

Should I order 150 or 250 watt kits....

I don't want to fight heat issues as I can not afford a chiller on my budget. My tank is 24" deep.
 
Sorry I missed this man, I think that you should be okay.

24" is pretty deep, but I am seeing GREAT growth out of some blasto's on the sand bend under 150w'ers in my 125g, which is 24" deep if I am not mistaken.
