I have the same tank and am picking up my lights from cool touch today.I got the dual 175 MH (10K Ushio) with the 2 VHO. I will let you know how they look when I get them set up.

Daryl - I've seen your setup. The absolute perfect lighting system for you would be a Geisman. Take a trip to Strictly Fish in Georgetown to check out the lighting and you'll see what I mean.

For your particular placement of the tank and the room decor, a Geisman would be ideal. Brace yourself for the pricing however. It's not cheap! :o
