3 250W HQI pendent 10K sufficient?
I'm setting up a 180 Oceanic tank 6x2x2. Would 3 250W HQI pendent 10K be sufficient? (plus a couple VHO actinic's)

crimsoncoral, Hey, I'm in Chicago too! Just what I've read: 150w HQI for <20" deep aq, 250w HQI for <28", 400w HQI for 28"+. Also, these " are deeper than an equivalent mogul MH because lumen output of HQI are higher, however, because HQI mounting is limited the coverage is barely 20X20" when mounted within 10" of surface (as many do). Anyway, just what I heard. But seems as though your set. I am now looking for some HQI setups, where did you get yours? Where are you in the city, what LFS do you frequent and why? Sorry for the ??, email me if you want. Bill.
