Would 384W of Power Compact lighting (4 X 96W) be enough for nearly "4wpg"
in a 77 gallon tank? (48"x24"x16"). We have about 2 feet of height that this light has to penetrate strongly. I'm pricing out some retrofit kits that go from 220watts (4X55) to 440watts (8X55W). I realize that PC lighting is much more efficient than the more conventional T8 or T12...but I don't know how it rates in the watts-per-gallon scale. I was thinking of metal halide but don't like the costs or heat factors. Thanx for any tips and ideas!! ![]() Dave. |
