aquanaut has fishy dreams
5 tap HID lighting

Hello all


I looking to build a custom hood with [acronym:61eb2150d3="Metal halide light"]MH[/acronym:61eb2150d3] lighting and [acronym:61eb2150d3="Compact Flourescent"]CF[/acronym:61eb2150d3] tubes for Actinics. I see a lot of ballasts online that say they are ( 5 tap ) ballasts.What does that mean??? Each bulb needs it own ballast??
I want to light a 30 gallon long. what would rec. for wattage? Thanks
