Uniballer Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Simple question that i would like some input on. I am getting ready to move so I'm thinking of moving to a bigger tank, seeing that i have a 250watt hqi metal halide on a 15 high moving bigger is probably a good idea. So i have two tanks im thinking about please pick one on the poll and/or give me suggestions. Thanks Link to comment
skeletor Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 cube, get a cube ! 250w hqi would be perfect over a 30 - 40 gal cube tank. I don't think a single bulb is going to give you good enough coverage for a 40-B, (and I've no idea the dimensions of a 29), definately overkill for a 15H (imo). -skeletor- Link to comment
Uniballer Posted April 23, 2004 Author Share Posted April 23, 2004 the only problem with the oceanic cubes is the price and the LFS I work at dosnt sell oceanic so this means full price, something like 280 tank and stand, while a 29 black seal is 109 and the 40 breeder is 160 tank and stand ( because i work at a LFS this dosnt mean im a salt water expert, I'm a reptile man). I agree with the lighting issue on the 40 breeder as well. I am a poor college student and after just buying my halide i dont see any extra funds for lighting anytime soon. But i still want to see everyone's opinion, so vote. Thanks Link to comment

Looselyhuman Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 The cubes are $129 @ Petsmart. Definitely worth every penny. Maybe build your own stand? Ian Link to comment
