Overkill?

[jd_n]

Presently using a 10000k 150W Mh together with 2 FL actinic for my 3ft tank consisting of LPS and SPS. Thinkin of supplementing my tank with another 20000k 400W Mh or shd ii go for a 250W Mh instead. Wat do u guys think?

Go for it. Whatever lightings we have can never match the sun anyway.

Robe has 1050watts of lighting in a very shallow tank and I think he has LPS in there too.
