BTW: I use metal halides in all my tanks and even the tiny 10g tanks for hatchlings equipped qith a 35 W HCI are far from overheating.
For my adult T. lepidus I am using 150 and 70 W versions as long as they are kept indoors (in summer they are outside).
For my largest tank ( a bit larger than 1100g) I do use 1 x 150 W HCI plus 2 x 70 W HCI plus several T5 light tubes and I still have to provide extra heat to keep the necessary temps.
