i'm gonna be getting my lighting soon, and wanted some opinions and maybe some suggestions. I want to get 2 175W 5500K Iwasaki metal halides, then use 2 VHO Actinic bulbs on the outside of that. What Kelvin rating should i get the VHO's if i'm lookin to get a pretty good blue look. I want to stay with the 5500K MH, cause that's what my local marine biologist uses, and said that corals would do better because it has a natural curve just like the sun. The hood i'm making for them is adjustable, so i can adjust the intensity.
