I was just about to buy a 250 watt metal halide retofit kit when I heard about HelloLights.com's great deal. Do you think a 175 watt 10k metal halide retrofit kit would be enough light to keep sps in a 29? Any info is welcome.


Thanx,

Yup. I have 175s on my 30" deep tank and my acros that are about 14" from the bulb do fine.
