My QT tank is a 40g shallow tank...drilled with a sump. I went large so I could QT colonies (read about red bugs and acro eating flatworms...to start) and they should all be QT'd.....I learned the hard way.....BUT my lighting is a 250w halide, I have a skimmer and good current.....plus excellent water quality.

In answer to having that bulb as a QT tank bulb for acros...I wouldn't think that was ideal...I QT my corals for a few weeks now....so it wouldn't remotely work....maybe someone else will chime in with experiences they have had...but any QT and frag systems have MH lighting
