Posted	Metal Halides
26-10-2006 19:22 by Michael C	is it possible to use metal halides that are used around the house ( outside ). I have seen some that are 400w and i was wondering ?
26-10-2006 20:09 by chris	not to sure if you can spectium (sp) wise but they would be fine. are they 400w or are they about 200w? because 75 w lights give out 150w of white light 150w lights give out 300w of white light
26-10-2006 20:26 by Michael C	It said 400w so if i could get 400w bulbs what spectrum would i need the more blue look the better ( but not too blue ) Sorry i dont understand lights that much
26-10-2006 20:36 by craig	micheal did u sort nitrate out
26-10-2006 21:00 by Michael C	ITS DOWN TO 20 NOW SO I PURCHASED ANOTHER 30KGS OF LIVE ROCK. WILL THIS BRING IT DOWN
26-10-2006 21:07 by craig	well mate mine have gone up but due water change but my lfs and someone else said to add more live rock and it will do it so think it will i only need another 10kg
26-10-2006 22:08 by Michael C	SO DOES ANYONE USE A DIFFERENT TYPR OF HALIDES OTHER THAN THE ONES FROM YOUR FS ? I CURRENTLY HAVE 150W AND NEED AN UPGRADE
26-10-2006 22:46 by JOHANSWAN	forget about using outside halides for your tank its not the right lumines and colours and the endresult will be a tank full off algae and that display a yellow colour believe me a lot tried it due to costs but it doesnt work ,you cant just add 10kgs off liverock to a tank thats already established as your nitrates and ammonia gonna go through the roof once your tank is going with liverock and fish you should not place more than 2 kgs off liverock with your tank the average is 2kgs off liverock for every 20liters off water
27-10-2006 10:13 by jonie	no johanswan i think it does help but not 10kg lool good to here the nitrates are going down tho
