tomanero has a 250 w for sale worth a look

[RayAllen]

I was going to suggest the same thing. $100 is a great deal for a retrofit 250w MH.

[ST3PH3N]

how many watts per gallon should i be looking for to be able to put whatever i want in my tank?

[RayAllen]

Id say at least 6watts per gallon is good

[ST3PH3N]

so 250 would only put me at mid 5's

[clone]

that would be good,5 is good 6 is great

[ST3PH3N]

i was looking to go alittle more cause im around that with the lighting i have now

if you have actinic on there, they do add to the WPG.

I was thinking that too. I have a dual t-5 actinic strip light that I think I could hang in a canopy.

but there is a difference from MH to t-5's

I know. I was talking about adding it to the mh to make a higher watts per gallon.

[envy]

it will help add a blue look to the tank
