Lighting Question

[Hirobo]

At this moment i am running 150 watt mh and a 45 watt atinic pc on a 30 gallon hex. I have a 38 gallon rect tank that i am thinking of setting up, and moving everything out of the hex into it. im just not happy with the limitations of a hex tank. the lighting that I have now do you think it will be sufficient for the other tank? it is 36" long and about 20" deep.

Thanks

Its really up to you. Of course more light is better but it also depends on what corals you plan on keeping. If its SPS you may need more lights.
