lighting for a 90
I currently have a aqualight pro hqi fixture. (492 watts total) It has 2- 150w hqi's and 2- 96 watt pc's with 3- lunar lights and is 48" long. I had this fixture on my 75g and it seemed to work fine. Will this still work on my 90g for a furture reef setup?
Thanks |

Yes it will.The 150w mh will probably not pentrate with strong light to the bottom ,since the 90 is 24 inches deep.If you keep your spes up high you should be fine.
