    For the money I would use one of the new 120w dimmable LED fixtures from reefbreeders(Anemone).
    $199 to your front door, save on electric usage, bulb replacement costs, and they can easily be adjusted to look like anything between 10k and 20k bulbs with the twist of the knobs.
    Oh yeah, the best part is they should easily last 8 to 10 years before you need to start looking to upgrade or replace them :)

    If you get a 250 watt i don't care what coral you get it will burn it, get the first one a 150 watt is also a little high, so raise it higher. About 12 inches of the surface should be good enough.
