ok so here's my idea. over the past two years i have amassed quite a collection of bulbs so i ahve this outlandish plan to put the majority of them to use.

 

ok so here's my plan.

 

20 watt atintic on 24 hrs a day. (i find i have better polyp extention and my anenomes seem to do better with this)

 

photo period would consist of:

 

1) first 2 hours a second 20 watt atintic would turn on.

 

2) next hour 2 20 watt 6500k pc's plus both atintics would be on

 

3) next 6 hours 1 70 watt mh would be on as well.

 

4) next hour mh would turn off only 6500k's and atintics would be on

 

5) next 2 hours both atintic only.

 

6) only one atintic until the next "dawn"

 

so what do you guys think? i have everything accept the 70 mh already. so i would be thatexpensive.

 

i'm kinda worried about heat so i'm think 4 fans pushing though an in closed hood to keep tank evap to a minimum and hopefull keep the mh/pc's ambiant heat from heating up my tank.

oh but i'd like to keep the neon sps, some lps. maybe a clam. i'm building my tank slow so i can keep things running smoothly and keep my pocket book from getting to thin.

i constantly read up on all sorts of marine animals. i try and make sure to know everything i can beforei go and make a purchase. especially since this is a very expensive hobby and i am a very broke college student. so haveing an expensive livestock die is something i try to avoid.
