ac_archie Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 using a JBJ viper 150W clamp-on on a 29gallon AGA (30"x12"x18")? opinions and advice pls? Link to comment
ermartin Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 just do it... I have mine on a tank half that size Link to comment
ac_archie Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 will it light up the whole tank? or both side are gonna be dark? hehe Link to comment
burtbollinger Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 it will light tank, folks use 150w MH all the time on 30g tanks..... Link to comment
ac_archie Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 but the fixture is small and different.. this thing looks that it will only light the center of my tank? Link to comment
SWFFAN Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I was using the Viper with a Phoenix 14K bulb on my 29 (same size as yours) and it worked perfect. Plenty of light! Link to comment

burtbollinger Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 dude....no need....150w MH will light your tank, easily. stop tripping....do you really think it matters if its held in a small fixture? NO, it doesnt....light is light.... 150w MH is 150w MH....any more is overkill...stop worrying. I have a 30g finnex w/ 150w and a 24g with 150w....HUNDREDS of other on this board have the same thing... Link to comment
xbwolfx Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 150w MH is 150w MH....any more is overkill...stop worrying. the 250w over my 30 cube disagrees with this statement. Link to comment
ac_archie Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 ok thanks burtbollinger.. i'm reading your 30g thread Link to comment
ac_archie Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 thanks swffan.. i think your tank is a 29g tall? Link to comment
