Default Lights.

okay lighting
so looking to purchase something local and have a budget of around $300
hopefully costs less
anyways hanging is not an option need a tank mount.
the tank is 31" outside measure so it has to fit on that.....
not really sure what my options are hoping for a 4 bulb t5 fixture
any thoughts on what way i should go hopefully from aquarium illusions or from a local reefer in the area.... (north Edmonton)
maybe even a t5/mh mixture?

(also bulbs for t5 will be 2 blue 2 white in a blue white white blue pattern will this be okay?)

really need some serious help in this area :s
