Hello ALL,

I just recently got back into fresh water, after saltwater.
My question is I have two different color bulbs in my tank right now one is
6500k nd the other is 10k. Now on the side with the 6500k the Anacharis
has grown more then six inches in a week. On the other side with the 10k the Anacharis have grown less then three inches. I also notice more allege growth under the 10k.
I have two 150 watt medal halide system with two different bulbs.
What bulbs should i be using and can i put 175 watt bulbs into the sockets?

I throough together a web site with some more information.
