NogaroBlueS4 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 my coral life 30" 1x65w 50/50 PC to a 70w MH Viper Clamp? Link to comment
SPS20 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 On a 20L, I would go for 150w/175w rather than 70w. The difference in price isn't that big, really. If it turns out to be a bit too bright, you can always switch to a higher-K bulb to reduce intensity. Just my .02 Link to comment

JerryF Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I would go with the 175. I have it and love it for my 20g hex. You can always switch bulb or adjust height as necessary or even use it later on something bigger if you so choose. Link to comment

Nope, you won't be losing your actinic as long as you pick a MH bulb that has actinic spectrum Go with a good 14k or 20k... browse around and check out some pictures Link to comment
Detritus07 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I have a viper on a 30" tank. Going for a sunpod though. A viper is better for a narrower tank. Link to comment
