I need new MH bulbs and one of my ballasts are acting funny. So I was thinking of switching to this in my canopy.

Right now I run 2/ 175W MH 10K bulbs and 1/ 96w PC atinic. I have a 72 G bow front with mostly softies and a clam.



Just want to know your opinions.

Because you can fit more lighting in? If so how many should I go with? I am Open to all suggestions, Including keeping or upgrading my MH. I would prefer to change for heat and $$ reasons. I live on Long Island NY and our electric company drains our pockets. I think my bill went up $80 a month just from adding the tank.


I guess what I am asking is if you had to switch from MH to some other lighting, what would be your ultimate setup for a 72G tank?
