It can't exceed 150W???? Why? Even a 150W Bulb really pulls more like 170 from the wall, and that's only one bulb,.. so I don't think you can do it.

each side can be 150w output. It needs 2 bulbs, each bulb 150w or less output. its a shallow long tank. really dont care how much it pulls from the wall
