Sorry, I've seen it happen a few times around here are it bugs the hell out of me... Sorry, needed to vent.
About your lights... Personally I'd go with the Odyssea (though I can't say for sure without knowing what dorothy is); I considered this same unit at one point. The 250W will give you more options down the road with what you can keep and the power compacts actually aren't all that bad if you're just supplimenting a halide (which can even be avoided if you want to use a high colour temperature bulb). My Coralife Aqualight Pro (not bought from any of the vendors here) uses this same sort of MH/PC set-up and it's stellar.
Also, there are some tricks you can use to make an Odyssea cool. Google 'em or we can discuss them here.

not to sure about the vender policies here i just figured id be safe and not if i could kinda thing. dorthy islike a pendant with dual t5's clipped on by a strapmetal on each side which makes me nervous.
i think ive made my decition to go with olga mainly cause of the 250mh vs 150. as well they have a refugium light i like.
but thank you i will google thecoling methods and do thank you all for the input i was just surprised earlier that noone had any input usually tons of opinions
i remember certain seahorse discussions earlier this year.
