is it possible to replace with lower wpg bulbs of same sort, something like 130w total?

Can't go with lower wattage, no. But if you get the 260W with 3 separate cords, it also has 3 switches, and you can just use 1 bank if you want, 130W, and use the 2nd bank as a spare if a bulb goes out. I have that fixture and love them.

As for K rating, you can get 6400k, 12000k, 50/50, and actinic bulbs. Not sure if there's others for the 65W bulbs. I have mine as 2 6400k bulbs and 4 12000k bulbs in my tank, and 2 actinic.

I like your fixture alot and say I do get this one on ebay, as per I am not going with co2 I need to stick with less than double watts per gallon correct and if so, I would only use like you said one bank. would that be one bank, would that bank include 6400 and 12000 and actinic? how would that work? im asking to know what color this way of use will it give!

 

[Lonewolfblue]

Each bank has 2 bulbs, one on the left side and one on the right. You'd want to keep them the same. You could do 6400k in one bank, and 12000k in the other and see which you like. Each bank is a row, from left to right, not front to back. So you could do 6400k bulbs in the rear bank, and the 12000k bulbs in the front bank. That way, when using just 1 bank, it's not yellow on one side of the tank and blue on the other.

Also, if you feel you need to go lower than 130W, then your only option would be 50/50 bulbs, which each bulb is half 12000k and half actinic. So that would lower your wattage to 65W total light.

And if going with 130W, and you want to add more blue, for the 2nd bank you can go actinics. It won't change your w/g. Will still be 130W using both banks.

So you do have some different options.

in other words, setting up my 75g no co2 plant tank this fixture and its option is just fine. thanks

 

[Lonewolfblue]

Absolutely. And the other plus I didn't mention, it gives you the option later to upgrade to CO2 later on if you desire, and higher light, without having to buy another fixture. Can go from 1 bank to both banks if you so desire and run CO2. It's very flexable in it's options.
