Don't know what size your tank is because it is not in your signature but you can NEVER go wrong with MH's. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)

I agree with Otty, you cant go wrong with MH's. But if you do decide to go with MH's, I would get any bigger than 150w bulb for your size. | |

The MH im considering buying is a 150w and 2 24w t5's. Ok so im, assuming that this option is better then 4x 24w t5's? | |
