29g Lighting Finale

[adampw]

Ok I have narrowed my lighting choices down to 3 different lights and I would like everyones opinion in which light I should purchased. I would like to eventually be able to keep everything in my tank (sps, lps, clams, polyps, etc).

30" Orbit PC - 2x65w with 2 lunar lights
Current 30" SunPod 1x150w 14k HQI
Current 30" SunPod 1x250w 14k HQI

Which one of these 3 lights would you guys recommend? Thanks in advance for you comments :D

go with the 150w sunpod.

 

[reeffreak]

Ditto.

If your wanting to keep clams, anemones and sps, I would go with the sunpod 250 that will give you alittle over 8 watt per gal.

Sunpod 150 IMO.

I saw a neat light at my LFS that combined the Orbit like CFL tubes, the metal halide and the moon lights all in one unit that would fit on a 29g. The store price was around 279.00, I cant remember the wattage of the MH lamp though.

Thought it was cool.
