    adding MH lights question

    do you think if i used 2 150 watt lamps i would be better, or 2 250 watt lamps. i have someone local who has a coralife HQI clamp style light that is a 150 watter, i would then track another 1 down , or i could do 3 of those across the back of the tank.... im new here so please bear with me .
