Is that a double ended MH bulb being used? I thought they needed to a filter (piece of glass) with them to filter out harmful UV light. I like the idea, but caution against using unfiltered double ended MH bulbs... ------------- Everything in life is possible. You just have to dream big, and act bigger. 150 G Reef |

Jon may not see this recent question, since he doesn't visit here often, but by the brightness of the pic it looks like a 150, possibly a 175 but unlikely a 250W MH. Also, wouldn't want or need anything brighter over that tank.
