Hi guys.. just wanted to get your input on a lighting upgrade I'm doing next year... I don't think the 250w MH SE by itself is cutting it coz I'm still having the retarted long stolon affliction for my zoas/palys... most of them if I move them up, they go back to normal.. the thing that I don't understand is my tank's dimensions are 24"L x 18"W x 18"H and the MH is about 8-10" off the water surface... do you guys think it's too high that's why I'm having the long stolons..
here's what I plan on doing... I really want to have a 250w MH DE (14k Phoenix) pendant w/ (2) 24" HO T5 retros for actinics... another option would be to have 4-6 24" HO T5 retros, whatever I can fit..
creetin's been nice enough to give me feedback on what I wanted to do but more insight won't hurt.. right?? what do you guys think? should that help with my long stolon problem? I really hate seeing this with my zoas/palys..
Thank you all in advance...
