    Top-off Controller Question

    Most of those pumps run real low voltage so you should be fine....Check though first. Then check the amp rating on the controller.

    two metal halide bulbs?

    It will double your par... Per having just one now.. i would agree that one 250 mh would do the work of 2 175's. Just a matter of opinion though.... how hot is your tank running with just one 175? That would be my concern.. happy Reeffing
