I really appreciate it... but I really don't think I'd be able to do all that. I'm just making a jump into DIY territory with a sump/fuge. I'm comfortable with that since there's not much too it... no electrical work, etc.

Alright... so if I get the IceCap Spider Reflector with 250W 14k Hamilton Bulb and their electronic ballast. Estimated costs would be ~$750

Then what? The pricing is so scattered after that for VHO retro:

Sunlight - $119

PFO - $134

Coralife - $199

IceCap - $217 (Includes bulbs)

I like IceCap and think you get what you pay for. I want to hope that IceCap VHO Set is an electronic ballast... since that's what they all normally are (from IceCap at least).

They recommend one actinic white and one blue. In this scenario, I would get two blues... right?
