Well thanks to my Beautiful and very smart Wife to be :)

She decided to help me out with the lighting for my tank concidering she knew i cant do with out them.. but at the same time needed to buy them! So i decided to leave everything in the smaller tank with the halide untill i could afford the new lights for the larger tank.. But then i think she started to think the same thing that .. Well it just looks bare! .. lol, So here are the lights! :)

Here you can see the VHOS ( 4x 110 watts installed ) they are older bulbs came with the tank..
Consisting of 2x Aquasun, 1x URI Actinic, 1x URI Actinic white. With a 175 watt 10k Ushio Metal Halide.

Now im seriously Concidering maybe running 2x 175s.. I really think that 250s would be too much for this canopy!

Mike looks great, I thought the first pic is the one with all the light on I was gonna say the right side is very dim, then notices it was only the halide...

Yea its just the single 175 watt Halide Centered over the tank.. This should be more than good enough for my clam and my one Sps.. coral.
