Hey all here's an update for anyone looking to purchase lights.

Got more light output didn't you?

Yep. It was hard to tell with the halides on but after they shut off you could really see the difference.

That's What I thought untill bought a second actinic fixture. Then I saw the difference with the metal halide on. Over the reef tank with the new light I now have 4 75w actinic VHO, 3 10000k T5s, 3 actinic T5, and the metal halide. I will be removing the VHOs as of this weekend.

Hope you have some sunglasses for viewing your tank!
