good DIY. u must able to access to CNC milling with CAM to machine all those parts. good works. anyway wat type of motor did u use? wat is the RPM?

hehehe actually now i m using single 250W SE hamilton 14kk wif luminrac supplement wif single t8 6500k bulb. i on the 6500k 1hr b4 & off 1hr after my mh is off. i switch on my mh at 3pm & off at 11pm. u can power ur MH 8-12hrs daily. depends on ur tank needs. so far mine is ok. i might wan to increase further. FYI using only t8 6500k the algae oledi grow like crazy...i cant imagine reefer using t5 or mh for 6500k. but i notice my poccilora edouyxi & verucosa red color has enhance after my t8 6500k supplement.

bro i dun agree wif u... i hv seen XM 10kk...more yellowish color, blv 14kk crisp white...i m personal using hamilton 14kk is crisp blue. so kenot say which is blue or yellow ..but comparing temperature kelvin but need to consider the brand too. s ofar XM 10kk got the highest par according sanjay joshi...but to me damn yellow man....definitely need lots of actinic to eliminate the yellow color.

10K is suitable for yellow, red, pink acros & 14kk is for blue, green, purple acros. so if u wan to hv twin MH..i will go for 1 10kk & 1 14kk. so u can place the acros accoding to the lighting zone to thrive. just my 2cents. to balance off the yellowish color get more actinic t5. just my 2cents.

+6590024001 wat is ur emergency case like?

for the rapid respond...i i m not intend to use actinic is possible..so i quite like the hamilton...& blv bulb never seen b4...will consider.

now i m more confident to choose 250W MH. thanx anyone.... now again i only will hv a single MH to play around ..a 10kk, 14kk or 20kk bulb? i seen hamilton 14kk 250W in action i kinda like those color. so it is good enuf for overall sps?? i heard that Pink, purple, red, and yellow sps like 10kk bulb & Blue and green sps like 14kk...so is it true? so any recommendation??

thanx bro for those precious opinions... so conclusion is that 250W wif LA3 lumenarc shud cover the 3x3ft area rite? i dun expect 100% cover ...i will satisfied wif 90% coverage. any other opinion?

i m in process in setting up a new sps dominant tank( sps on top, some LPS & shroom at the bottom), i intend to use a single MH...a 250W wif lumenarc or 400W wif spyder reflector. my question is whether the 250W wif lumenarc can cover 90% area for the tank size of 3ftx3ftxh1.5ft tank?? or if for single 250W MH wif lumenarc what is the tank size recommended (which can cover 90% area)? & if for single 400W MH wif spyder reflector what is the tank size recommended (which can cover 90% area)? thanx lots.
