I have a 20 gallon nano occupied by mostly softies but I want to be sps dominant someday. I have a 150 watt mh just curious if it would be better than my Current orbit, and that's 43 watt l.e.d

IMO the orbit falls short for SPS tanks...
The MH would work but might be over kill on a 20gallon...
Have you look at any other LED systems?
 
Yes, they're some 120w dimmable cheapies on Amazon for around $100, I'm just a little reluctant
