Which VHO lamps?

I want to stop using the halides in my 125, tank has become fowlr and a few softies and encrusting polyps, no sps. I want to change out the two (very old) 160 w URI actinics but can't decide between 2- Aquasun lamps or one each, actinic white and blue. What do you think? Does it matter, or will I get roughly the same light either way?

Well Do you have an Ice Cap 660?? I havent run the URI aquasuns yet but have heard that corals seem to like em. I also think it has to do what YOU like for light color. How long bulbs are you plannig on useing?Howmany?
Say you run 4 bulbs I waould try 2 atinic, 1 aquasun and 1 white daylight.

Icecap 430, two six foot 160 watt lamps. Decided to go with one each white and blue. Thanks for you thoughts.
