    Unless you are looking to keep an SPS dominated tank I bet a 4 bulb Tek fixture would work just fine. Keep in mind you have to replace the bulbs every year or so, 8 bulbs is a lot at about $20 a piece.

    I agree with screwtape, but the nova extreme in the 4 bulbs will probably work pretty much the same.
