    My friend is upgrading his tank so, his 1.5 month old MH+PC combo is for sell. He bought it from aquatrader. The link below is the exact same one, with 2x130 watt PC instead of the 4x96w in the pic.

    Check it out!

    It's 5' long and my tank is 6'. He's selling it for $300.

    For me it's the money, but I don't want to get it and have to upgrades later on. The wattages is good, but some people said it has catch on fire before.

    What do you all think!

    Thanks!

    Well that would definitely be plenty of light for just about anything you wanted to keep. Get a good clean up crew ready tho, you will have a pretty big algae bloom.

    Actually, I am going for T5-HO, cause of the less heat and the way less electricity bill. Thanks!
