not realy, 250 watt HQI (either DE or SE) can be just as/or more intence than 400's with a little power savings.

the real nice thing about going DE is the smaller size alows the use of more efficient reflectors and sense they are housed in a enclosure there is less heat added to the tank (or it is easier to take care of)
