I have a 29 gallon tank in my room and I want to start have SPS, LPS, Clams, and Brains. Basically everything lol I'm looking to invest in a metal halide. I see fixtures such as lamps that do 150 or 250W.
I was wondering which one should I look into? Like is 150w enough for any coral, or do I need 250?
Also, should I be looking for 10000K or 14000K?
Will 250w be too much lighting?
I know it will create a lot of heat, so fans are a must, but some lamps have cooling fans which is cool. I also see it should be about 8 inches above the water.
I know I have a lot of questions, but I'd like some help
