Hi, I have desided that I want a 100 gallon or so reef tank, and will be using MH lighting.

I am just wondering how much this tank with MH lighting would raise the ambient temp in the room, The room is large, 20'x14'.
In the summer its tough to keep the room at 22C.
I have a window AC in the other room, but its not large enough to cool the whole condo down.
 
Tough to say really, probably at least a degree or two C. I'd be more worrying about heating the water ;). If temp is a concern, you'll NEED to go with electronic ballasts as they are eons cooler
