percula_clown Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 Hi Guys What's the best spectrum of MH bulb (6500K, 10 000K, 20 000K?) to use for my tank? I have a mix of corals and fish in my tank with clam. And also, where to find cheap and good one? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crab Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 so cheap? $100 for a 400w MH? then wat kind of bulbs should i use? and is this holder recommend for marine system? I thought the web site says "c/w lamp"? meaning it comes with bulb right? probably < 5000k bulb, maybe can trade-in for higher k. Ya, is this suitable for marine tank? Which is better, HQI or DE? Anyone can advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Ya, is this suitable for marine tank? Which is better, HQI or DE? Anyone can advice? Correction. I mean SE or DE is better? Read that DE requires UV glass. What about SE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
