Hello,

 

I have a 110 gallon acrylic tank that I am setting up. It is 60" Long x 20"
Wide x 24" Tall. What is the best lighting for a tank like this? The tank
will be a planted discus tank. I am torn between power compact and metal
halide. I am somewhat concerned about the heat metal halides give off. I am
going to be using a custom canopy so they would be mounted inside it (the
canopy can be 12" high).  Do I need to go metal halide being I have a 24"
tank depth? Is there a big difference between light given off by a power
compact versus metal halide? Any suggestion/opinions?

 

Thanks Much,

 

Shane
