How about a 1000watt MH or HPS?

I know the spectrum of the bulbs would definately be off but you can pick these ballast/lights etc. off craigslist very cheap (they are pretty much sed to grow um medicinal marijuana=).. anyways Im thinking of one of these over like say a 4'x4' by 18"deep grow out tank with some actinic supplementation should be able to grow some killer SPS? The spectrum I think..Would be similar to a Iwaski... I would definately Not be planning on putting this light in a hood it would be suspended directly above the growout so it could be raised or lowered..

any thoughts?
