    heres the problem, my room is too hot with the MH light on it. i have a 55 gallon with nothing in it that i could transfer everything to, including the light. would it work?

    150W MH lamp 14 or 10K bulb available
    Corals: kenya tree, GSP, finger leather, red montipora, LTA, acans, SHROOMS!!

    so nothing too light demanding cept for the nem.
    could i move everything over? my room is HOT and i dont have money for a different light:(. thanks all! have a nice day!

    Moving to the 55 will change nothing if it is still in your room. You could move everything over. The nem will move to a better spot if needed.

    If that's what he meant, that's why I was confused. If the MH is in the room, the heat will be there no matter what.

    You have enough light for the corals just place them higher on the rock pile than in your 30. If you have enough water made and sand to put in the 55 you should be able to do it in a day.
