Thanks very much. So, what you recommend is one blue + actinic and one pure actinic for the 2 t5's? and as for MH's, i can go with 2 175w coralvue 10k . .

I would use one of each with the T-5's and stay with the 175 watt MH's, no need to use more intense light given what you want to keep, but I would opt for Ushio, Aqualine-Buschke, or XM lamps versus the Coralvue.

Hamilton also makes a good lamp too.

gotcha. Thanks. Last big question: Ballast suggestions? it comes with a remote ballast box but options to upgrade to icecap 175w, 250, 400w e-ballast . . .
