I'm setting up a 70gal tank with the dimension of 30''x30''x18'' and thinking about going with metal halide. So far this is the combination I'm thinking about.

Lumen Bright pendant and reflector
Galexy electronic ballast
250w 20k radium bulb

My question is, would it be too much for a 18'' deep tank? I'll probably hang it around 12''-14'' above water level. The tank will be a mixed tank with lps/polvp on the bottom and sps on the top.

Another question is the halide will be hanging from the ceiling. How can I add supplemental lighting to the setup? I would like it to have a clean look. Pic would be great. Thanks in advance
