If you want to keep sps and clams i would recommend metal halides and 250 watts to say the least, my preference is 14ks. My one 250 watt 14k hamilton pendant couldnt cover the 2ft radius, it will only cover 1ft. I guess if they made it so the bulb is sideways it would cover the whole tank. everything is doing good but I think the sides are very dark, if there was one on each side it would be perfect. The only reason I went with the hamilton pendant was that it was the cheapest way to go in metal halides and i bought one used for cheap, thought it would do the job. It did half a job. Do your homework and dont rush in to anything. If I can help, LMK.
