I'm considering a single Lumenarc III Reflector with a 400w 14,000K MH for my AGA92 Corner.

My concern with that is it would only give me 4.35w/gallon.

The other configuration I am looking at, two 250w MHs and four 96w VHO Fluorescents, would give me 9.6w/gallon.

I eventually want to keep SPS, so I need to know if the single MH would be enough.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Chris

The single 400 MH would be enough but the problem people always run into with just one fixture is color won't be uniform on the corals. IMO you would be happier with 2 250's in the long run. Maybe some people with 92's will chime in.
