Im installing a 24 gallon planted tank directly under this 400watt metal halide. I'll be using a 10,000 XM to supplement the sunlight.

Im setting it up tonight

I think you should start up a thread, Mr. Triterium, for the new planted tank. Btw.. you're supplementing sunlight with MH?

I dont think that will be a problem, even if I have to come to SLC to yell at them personally we will get those plants to grow!

Yeah, i was thinking that would be the best method
I have the tank filled up, now i just need to decide on a substrate (hmmm, should i have put that in first?).... and maybe Suzy will be nice enough to share some algae with me
