Great looking tank.

Your single MH is adequate for that size tank...place high light requiring animals, i.e. clams directly under MH.

Lower light needing species can go in ends of tank.

I really think a second MH would be way too much for your size tank.

I am quite content to have only one 250wt HQI MH in my 125 gal tank in addition to PC's...but I am partial to softies and have no SPS. (do have some frogspawn that does well whereever it is.)

My softies grow much faster when not directly under MH....


Looks good already whatever you decide.

Good Luck!
