TRIPLE 250 or 400 WATT MH 72" needed

[steveo32]

I need a 72" mh retro set up for a 125 reef. I was lookign to buy a 125 total setup but no one is running lights so support the needs of sps's. So I will take a 400 watt or 250 triple mh setup retro prefered. thank you

well let me see how it goes, I might have to do that in the end, but Im really keeping my eye out for the 400 watts, If I'm going to spend the money I might as well do it right (LOL)

These kits are in great shape (I used to own all 3 - sold one to dereal and now have a dual set up).

3x250 is plenty for that size tank, but I guess that's all dependant on taste.

Let us know, these are all plug and play retro's. Guaranteed to light the tank up like a tree

I'll even go to $350 to sweeten the deal.

BTW, for what it's worth - I have 3 250's on my 180 and it's 24" deep.

well house what was your bulb upgrade? becuase I wanted to run 14k's and all have aatinics right? Oh and as a side note that green thing you gave me at the swap looks awesome. the tort's great to but no very good polyp extention what should i do ?

 

[House of Laughter]

The green thing was a hydnophora

Polyp extension is a result of many differnet things - but keep to it, it will come around.

The retro kits you buy from Premium aquatics I think come with coralvue bulbs - I upgraded to XM 10k's for their crispness.

Hope that helps,
