Metal halide lighting


Recommended Posts

Hi all, first time venturing into a metal halide fixture.

Tank would be a 3x1.5x1.8

Is a 200 watt metal halide sufficient for lighting it up?

Might also add a 2 feet t5, decommed from my 2 footer, for a purple+blue tube.

Bro don't think metal halide bulbs come in 200watt for Sg standard. They come in 75w 150w 250w and 400w.

Metal halides are hot. So you'll need a chiller for this setup.
