Is this good, bad, or otherwise?

Ive bought a 75 gal FOWLR. I have 2-175 MH, a VHO ballast I will run 2 actinics. I have 2 more places for fluorecent tubes. Should I go with more VHO or a couple of NO tube?
I'll be getting a few low to moderate light corals and shrooms soon.

do you have the ballast already for the two extra bulb spot?

If no, then get what you can afford.

Do you have the cash to go with VHO?

If yes, get VHO, more light is always a good thing and will give you flexibilty in day/night/dusk/sunrise options.

I have ballast for VHO or NO. I thought about NO for sunrise and sunset, and then I considered more light the better. What color rating would be best for 2 more VHO?
