How long are you running halides

I'm not going anywhere. Been at it 6 years now. New tank with new lights. Learning and trying something different is what keeps it interesting

Well, your going to love MHs man. Second to none.

I have 3 250 Watt MH and run them 5 hours each, staggering them going on and off left to right across the tank by an hour. So there is at least 1 MH bulb on for 7 hours total. I also run 360 Watts of 454 VHO for 12 hours a day.

3 250w radiums on m80 ballasts for 6 hours a day. Things seem ok bit was wondering if a couple pieces would benefit from another hour or so of heavy lighting during the day.
