    ok i have seen this light everywhere and the one im looking runs about 390 with no bulbs. i have looked at a lot of different retailers and cant find on that inclucdes the bulbs. it is a 6 bulb 48" setup. 2 switches. one switch controls the 2 outer tubes (which im asuming are for antic) and the other switch controls the 4 inner bulbs. ie one switch controls 2 bulbs and the other switch controls 4. my questions would be what kind of bulbs should i buy(what brand and which ones) my tank is both coral and fish. i think i know what everyone is going to say but just to be on the safe side i would like to hear your oppinions. and if it ends up costing me about 600 im more than likly going to go with one of the current MH set up.
