Tholian Tetryon Grid?

[Wulfroar]

Do I need to use tetryon weapons on a Tholian ship to activate and use the Tholian Tetryon Grid, so the Tholian Widow Fighters or Tholian Mesh Weavers can fire reflective beams during the ability.

Sorry if its a silly question I just don't understand it and reading the wiki didn't help me...

According to the wiki it doesn't look like it, but given its the console doing the damage for the two reflective beams each pet shoots out you might as well use tetryon if you're using energy damage boosting consoles.

No, but you do need to be using Tholian fighters (either widows or mesh weavers) in order for the second portion of its special ability to work.

As ImperatorPavel mentioned, however, tetryon bonuses on your ship would boost the console's effect, so it would be a good idea... but does not appear to be absolutely required.
