Lighting a Large Viv
I know this must have been asked before but I am having no luck finding any threads. I am planning the construction of a large display for my living room. It will be 66"Long x 48" Tall x 26" wide. I know it is going to take some monster lighting to penetrate to that depth. I am taking the heat load into account by installing an elaborate cooling system for the lights and top of the viv. So I don't think that heat should be too much of a problem. So with that in mind how much light do I need? I have been considering a pair of 400 watt MH, but would love to hear opinions. I have also considered cf and vho lighting, but they seem less likely to be able to cast light all the way down to the bottom.
Thanks, Holly
