OK, I need some ideas.

The tank is 6' long by 18" wide, with a 14" wide glass center brace.

The main concern I have is heat. The 400 + 250 bulbs over my little tank cook my bedroom during the day and I don;t want that to happen in my living room as well.

Should I go with 3 175w MH? or 12 55w PCs? I can fit them in 3 rows of 4.

Any input would be helpful.

Thanks,

Scott
