xdannyx_ Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 hey guys. I am getting an 11x11x11 tank. want 70w mh Story is, i have an aqua medic 150W mh pendant. i love it but id say its overkill for this project. wondering if anyone has any idea if i can put a 70W bulb in it. probably not. Send me some advise if you've got any. any cheap ways i can solve this problem or cheap 70w mh's. i am still as broke as i ever was, was going to hold off till after college for another tank but... thats too long and i miss it too much. also if anyone has a 70W aqua medic i will trade you my 150W thanks all Link to comment
MDeth Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 no to the 70 in the 150 fixture, but I don't see why you couldn't use the 150 ? I've seen 150s on 2gallons...GO FOR IT! Its only 11WPG Just make sure you DEFINITELY light acclimate everything well. Link to comment
xdannyx_ Posted June 27, 2007 Author Share Posted June 27, 2007 it would be like 26 WPG ( i know WPG doesn't matter too much but still) its a 5.76 gallon tank. i think it would bleach everything, i like colorful coralline algae, and i have a feeling 150 would make it all white, 70 probably would too, not as much though.
