Exactly what the subject says.
If I didn't mention your type of lighting, please post it.

4 T5s + 1 VHO super actinic

Cody, are you running both the T5's and VHO off the same ballast or two different ballasts?

Three different ballasts. An ARO for the VHO...and two Triads for (2) T5s each. It gives me a lot of flexibility in intensity and daylight / noon / sunset. Here's a link to the back of my canopy.

It's a double ended 150 watt metal halide with a 20 k bulb.

Cody - just a side note, if you put at the beginning of the link, and at the end, it will post the picture in the thread.

Go down to the bottom and click on smiles...just copy in whatever is by the smiley face that you want.

Hi Richard and everyone else, My name is Phillip Pham, I currently have 2x250MH with 2 t-5 actinics over a 70g or 75g flatback hex. One side of the tank is 20k and the other side is 10k, It looks good- I like the two color shades in one tank look.

Hey guys. I am Nick Moore from Memphis. I am also using the HOB halide from Coralife. I am originally from Jackson and hope to make it to some of the meetings. I usually work on weekends, it sucks being a college student, but I will see if I can make it.
