I'm setting mine up same as you it sounds: going broke once and never have to upgrade or worry about things I can and can't keep! I'm putting 2 250w Metal Halides on my 55. This will allow me to use the lights again if I upgrade tank size. Also, if your going all out, VHO's for your actinics are the only way to go. I've done a lot of research and talked to alot of people and this is what I came up with. Like I said, I want lighting to be the least of my worries! _________ 55 gallon reef aquarium, 85 lbs. live rock, 2 1/2" sandbed, False Percula Clown, Foxface, Whitecheek Tang, Tetratec PF500 filter, 2 110 watt URI Super Actinic VHO actinics, 2 250 watt metal halides with Reef Optix 2 reflectors powered by Blue Wave 3 ballast Born 1/3/08 CHECK OUT: My Tank Thread My Tank Video My 2nd Tank Video |
