starting a nano tank

[TRe]

well the quality is pretty good id say (check the pics posted in the nano tank pics thread) what about the metal halide i have thats collecting dust??

depends on the spectrum, but a MH bulb over a ten gallon generally generates way to much heat to be practical

 

[TRe]

what about a 20 gallon tank? would the metal halide be ok for a 20 gallon?

 

[1979camaro]

still going to probably cause a lot of problems...are you sure the spectrum is even right??

 

[TRe]

even if it wasnt i could always get a new bulb thats the cheapest part

 

[1979camaro]

$50+....not exactly cheap
