Like Mike said, most SS hose clamps are not 100%. I special ordered some that were 100% SS and used them in my sump for a while. After about 6-8 months they started to rust so I assume they were...

Oh, and 2x2 is probably overkill. Even 1" square tubing or rod should be lots unless the hood is REALLY big and heavy.

175 should do fine but a 250 balast isn't that much more. If you are going MH why not get a 250 and you will have lots of light for sps should you decide to go that way.
