I switched from a halogen torchiere lamp to a fluorescent one recently. Now I'm looking to put the old one to good use. Could I remove the top of the lamp, rewire it, and hang it over the tank like a
MH light for corals and invertebrates like that?
I have no experience with
MH lights. So I was wondering if the halogens would generate less heat than
MH, and more importantly, if the light has the right color.
