I've been thinking about increasing my lighting. My tank is a 36" 65g that's 30" deep and i'm thinking I can get better growth with a single 400W MH. What do you guys think about that?
Do you think a single 400W MH can fill a 36" tank with light? I can make a luminarc reflector no problem to help cast the light out.
It seems that when any of my sps corals get to be a decent size they lose color slowley and die. All other corals LPS and softies are fine. I'm thinking I just might not have enough light. Currentley I have two 20K XM's driven by mag ballasts which out par many 10K 175w bulbs.
let me know what you think
Thanks for any input
