ok this is just for future reference, something i'm thinking about for next year or the year after....i was looking to upgrading to a 10 gal tank (now ya don't hear THAT very often lol) from my 5 gal. the reason i'm stuck w/ 10 gal is that's the largest size tank we're supposed to have in our dorm rooms. i was looking at the current sunpod HQI metal halide. the 20 inch length comes in 70 or 150 watt. not too much of a price difference.
so which wattage would be better? if i do get the bigger tank, i want the lights so i can get more corals than just stupid mushrooms.... the number of fish doesn't bother me at all...i'd probably only keep my one fish in it, maybe another, ocellaris.
