Hey all,
I currently have a Tek5 24 x 4 T5 fixture running over my 30g tall tank. It’s been awhile, so I can’t remember my configuration, but I am guessing I have 2 x 12k and 2 Actinic Plus in there right now.
I was thinking about changing out to a 24” Sunpod 150w HQI fixture. I like the MH look, and I think the extra light would help growth and make things pop a bit more. I see it comes with legs, but I am not sure if that would keep the light high enough off of the water. From the pics, it looks to be 4-5 inches, and my water is 1 inch below the top (gravity drain). Is this too low?
My tank has a few fish, some mushrooms, orange and purple caps, a montipora, bubble tip and condy anemone and zoas. The rock goes up to the mid-point of the tank.
Anyone run one of these on a similar tank?
