Default A lighting question

The advantage in using 2 bulbs would be twice the light but with a 400W bulb you'll have plenty of light. I think you'd be wasting a second bulb because of the light spread. The Radium bulb is a much more pleasing colour of bulb than the Iwasaki. With a Radium you could forgo the supplemental actinics.

EDIT: I should add that the trade off when using the Radium over the Iwasaki is bulb life and intensity.
