Hello everyone:

I picked up this light on eBaY and was wondering if it will make a good light for farming Zoonathids? I think I am starting to like these colorful little corals.
It has 4 46.5 inch 110 watt VHO bulbs.

And would you use 2 Actinics and 2 daylights or use the half&half bulbs? It does have 2 separate power switches.

Did I get ripped on the price? It came without bulbs. The guy works for a fixture manufacturer but I dont think they do aquatic lighting. I payed about $190 shipped.
