Re: What kind of lighting?

I recently bought a used SW setup that included 250wMH x 2 and 48" T-12 x 2 (also on an icecap 440). I have actinics in the T-12s.

I would not use the T-12 with a new system, but instead go with something like a T-5 like Paul suggested. T-12 hardware and spare bulbs are becoming harder to get by the day. None of the LFS here in Charleston carry them anymore.
