Hello, guys.
I'm preparing new reef coral tank of 75gal.
I wonder if metal hallide (150w * 2 = 300w) is enough or not.
Thanks.

well since no one replied i'll chime in. your lighting needs will reflect upon which corals you would like to keep. for a 75 i think the popular setup is to go with 2 250w MH's and 2 110w VHO's. OR you could run 2 400w radiums but those will add even more heat. just search around you'll find plenty of answers
