How does this look:

MH Ballast (PFO Lighting TAR) - $109
MH Bulb Socket (Mogul) - $13.95
Mounting Bracket - $18.95
8' Quick Disconnect Cord - $11.95
175w Mogul Base MH Bulb (10000K) - $114
-----------
Total = $267.85

OR

2 Bulb VHO Lighting Ballast Kit - $189.95
24" 75w Super Acintic VHO bulb - $32.95
24" 75w 10000K VHO bulb - $35.95
-----------
Total = $258.85

Both are using parts and prices from JL. Both systems seem very good. What I'm worried about is whether or not I need to add an acintic bulb to the MH since I read that corals do better with Acintic.

Again, thanks to everyone for their replies!
