I just got a tank, i'll get the dimensions later on.
Anyway, it has a hood, with 1 fluorescent aquarium bulb (the purplish one) that is literally about as old as I am. I was thinking about getting a metal halide light. First of all, I found one on ebay where you can get a 10k, 14k, or 20somethingk lightbulb. Which one would be the most beneficial?
Is HPS or MH the way to go? I guess they both look about the same price-ish.
How am I supposed to hang the light or whatever, and keep the terrarium covered? I think Clint said his MH warps the plastic covering he puts over his tank IIRC (can't think of what that stuff is called ATM).
I'm also not opposed to fluorescent, but I'd have to get a new hood, since the on eI have only holds 1 bulb. I'll get dimensions of everything in an hourish.
