250w Metal Halide Distance Above Tank?

Hi,

I'm interested in hanging a 250w Metal Halide Pendant over my 5.5g

The tank is only 11in deep, so how high above it should the light be mounted?

Thanks!

Agreed, I had 2 and both were out and on my hand everytime I stuck it in especially if there was food, they reminded me of dogs for that reason.

I have fed it once with Cyclop-eeze (I've only had it 3 days) is that what I should feed it or try something else?

Also it's under 36w of PC, but it's only in a 5.5g.

Any other suggestions?

I would think beneath, currently I don't have the tank or stand currently, still debating between 20-30 gal. I want to do some things differently this time when I build my setup.
