Lumenarc III Option

[HumanIMDB]

I'm considering a single Lumenarc III Reflector with a 400w 14,000K MH for my AGA92 Cornerand am looking at getting it with the Air Cooling option.

What is the noise level like? Whisper quiet, Jet Engine, or somewhere in between?

My other concern with that is it would only give me 4.35w/gallon.

The other configuration I am looking at, two 250w MHs and four 96w VHO Fluorescents, would give me 9.6w/gallon.

I eventually want to keep clams and SPS, so I need to know if the single MH would be enough.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Chris

the watts per gallon is pretty much useless- what are the dimensions of the tank?

[HumanIMDB]

The tank has a 34 inch radius and is 24 inches high.

i would go with the 2-250 for a little bit better coverage james is right it the depth to be concerned with more that watts per gal
