Hey guys, love the site so far good work.
my new tank will be 200cm long, 70cm deep and 80cm high and has about 1200litres(just less)/250gal.
I want to keep various sps corals and i will using 3x 250watt halides
(2x XM20k's and 1xiwasaki 6.5k). I beleive 400watt halides are overboard...
I have two questions:
a) How high should i place the light unit (assuming some corals will close to the surface)?
b) Will i get a 'two tone' effect with the different K lights? what i mean is will the center of the tank be more yellow than the sides due to the middle halide being 6.5k(for coral growth) and the two on the sides being 20kblue?
