Hey all,
Just asking this question, as I know most are MH supporters...
I am setting up a 75gal tank, and I am looking at two options for lighting (@$250.00)
option one:
CoralVue 48" Four Bulb T-5 Retro Kit. Includes reflector, 4 bulbs, electronic ballast, waterproof endcaps, and power cord. for 225
option two:

I think Option 1 is going to be a bit cheaper... but in the end if it only means another 100 dollars or so for the lights, then in all reality its only @$100 more expensive to go with MH over T5/VHO
if you know of any other alternatives to keep the cost down, then by all means, let me know.
TIA
