Lighting a 90....

[WarDaddy]

the water is 24" deep... should I go with 2 250 MH or 2 150 MH?

I am looking at getting these...

250 WATT HQI REEFSTAR - LOW PROFILE HQI METAL HALIDE SYSTEM

I'd go 250 but with either Reef Optix III+ or PFO pendants. I prefer the Reef Optix though.

my 90 is fine w/ 2x175

Depends on what you want to keep. The dual 175's were plenty over my tank with corals of medium lighting needs. In fact, they are growing better under PC's, although a few corals have faded or darkened without the MH's.

I would do pc's, but I have a few sps in the upper reaches of my tank.

i had the same problem before i got my 90...i wasnt sure if to go 175 or 250w...trust me...go with 250s...you wont regret it...175 will look dim on that tank.
