    I have a 320 acrylic tank. 74x30x30. Would I be better off

    using 4-250 halides or 2-250's and a 400 in the center.

    Thanks ;D

    250s are good to about 30 inches as long as you place corals carefully for their light needs. Most reflectors are good for 2 foot square area so you might be able to do 3 250s.
