I plan on buying a 72"x30"x25" 240 gallon which i will have viewable from 2 sides. I plan on making a custom cabinet/hood so the bulbs will be roughly 12" off the water. I plan on getting 3 MHs, 400W, (maybe w/ 2 VHO actinics on the side) for the lighting in this reef. I was wondering if that is enough seeing as the tank is 30" wide and I remember needing 1MH for every 24"x24". I haven't had an aquarium in roughly 6 years as my job has not allotted me to (Active duty) and I just got a permanent duty station in Washington DC. (YAY) That's a yay for being able to get an aquarium, and yay for perm duty station!!!!!
Thanks guys!
