I am torn about my lighting and what to do for a 92g corner 34x34x~36 (its 48 but won't fit a 48" light because of the corner against the wall) tank is 26" deep.
My corals have been loosing color since i sold my 220 and lights and the 175's just aren't cutting it.....
anyone running HQI with T5's?
my choices are to run a 36" fixture that is
1. 2x250 10K HQI with 2x39T5 Actinic. and centered in the back corner angled to the front a 175w SE 20K

2. 1000w 10k diamond luminarc Reef optic IV

3. or a retro 250 SE with VHO's and centered in the back corner angled to the front a 175w SE 20K Reef Optics II

4. 2x400 10K HQI and centered in the back corner angled to the front a 175w SE 20K

I am too lazy to setup a poll.
looking for people with corner tanks or people running mixed 10-20K's to chime in.
anyone have ballasts they love? Electronic? I have heard mixed reviews of the blueline E-ballasts....
lets say for the fun of it, money is no object. I'd rather do it right the first time
