I have been reading alot about T5 and MH lighting. One thing I'm trying to figure out is how much heat will be generated between the different choices. I definitely want to have either T5HO or MH.
So is heat much higher with MH than T5 or are they close?
(I am trying to avoid buying a chiller. )
How about bulb life and power usage?
I have a 75 gal. 48 X 18D X 20H tank.
The tank is in the basement so it stays around 72 year round.
I have been looking at the AquaticLife 6 X 54W Lamp T5HO, and the Current USA Outer
Orbit 2x250W 10,000K HQI with 4 X 54W T5 HO & 18 Lunar Lights
TIA
