MH lighting

Recommended Posts

Was thinking of changing my 2x150 watts + 2 T5 ( 3ft - DE light ) to 1 single 250 watt MH hanging fixture ( 14k or 20k bulb )

I was wondering if it's enough to light my 3x2x2 tank, end to end ( 3 ft ) ??

Trying to think of ways to save electricity ..... and also to prevent my chillier from on/off often.

for the moon light, I intend to buy Blue LED lights
