    get MH instead. if you're gonna go for MV, just go ikea instead. get a spotlight from them..

    MV= Mercury vapour
    MH = Metal halide

    If for a bigger tank, MH is more appropiate. Smaller tanks like 2ft or 3ft having PL or FL is still okay but it's best using MH Or MV they both give the plants a smile =)
    Cheers!
