WHAT CAN I HAVE with these lights

this what I bought in lights, now what can I have healty wise under
these.



14,000K HQI Metal Halide 300watts (2 x's 150w)............both Blue and
White Lunar Lights 6 each
I have 92 gal corner bowfront
bulbs for this light is DE so i can upgrade the watts?
it also has a proprietary electronic driving system (produce the
highest lumen per watt)
what ever that really means i don't know

It is a Current usa sunpod 36" here is the link so you can see the
configs

Thanks for all help

You have 3 watts per gallon. You can keep soft corals.
Some of the easier stony large polyp corals can also be
kept, but be forewarned that this lower light level will
leave such stony corals more at risk, though they may look
nice, and grow, they won't have as much vigor to fight off
infections and such.

Also since you have two 150 watt small point source
lights, you can put corals up close to those lights, and
gain quite a bit more light, whereas florescent light is
more spread out. MH light rules :-)

But it so much easier to have good lighting and not have
to worry about placement of the corals to get more light
to the coral.

Yeah, I've heard this. I think there was a recent article in the
"Tropical Fish" rag. They recommended introducing new lightly in
increments rather then just a swap out.

I was planning to radically cut back on the hours of light and then ramp
back up to where I am when I get my new lights.

Don't know if that's necessary, but I figure it won't hurt anything.

That's rarely a problem. They may not bloom out as much,
but rarely do they really suffer from the increased lighting.

Many a times I've taken corals from low light areas and
put them right under 400watt mh lighting.

It *can* produce a problem, but rarely does.

If you want to play it safe, you can place the corals
lower, and move them up, or reduce lighting , but I'm not
too keen on the idea of the reduce lighting method,
preferring the coral moving method.

I already have a "friendly" method: Talk about my and others' ponds,
and
studiously and quietly avoid the trolls.

Works surprisingly well for me.

I haven't posted much, because it's been a down summer/fall*, so not
much
happening in my interactions with the pond. Fortunately, it's big
enough
that Nature can manage just fine without me, though the hardy water
lilies
will need serious dividing as early in the spring as I can manage.

*Remodeling by the kitchen fire method. Effective, but NOT
recommended!
