very nice tank! How are the 150 watt halides working for you in the tank. i think it said your tank was 23 inches deep. i am looking to put 2 150 watt halides and 4 54 watt t5's over a 24 inch tall 120 gallon dominated sps tank. It seems as if the 150 watt bulbs are in fact powerful enough which contradicts the advice i have been given about upping my wattage for the 24 inch deep tank. any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

edit- 23 inches deep as in tall haha
