Hi, I'm upgrading to MH but I'm still unsure as to which fixture to buy. My tank is 48" long x 30" deep and I'm considering 2 150w MH + 2 96w PC Actinic.
I've done some reading and some people say this is not enough for a tank this depth. The thing is I'm not interested in clams or sps. I do want an anemone and a couple of lps that I can place on the top half of the tank.
I don't want to seem cheap, but is it really going to be worth going for 2 250MH if I'm not going that many light demanding corals on the bottom?
Please let me know what your experience tells you.
