Hey Mason ... Thanks ! ... I am using 4 X 400W MH 10K bulbs and 4 X 96W VHO Actinic ... the actinics are not running at the moment as it is a new hood that I got built from a local hydroponic store ... the end caps are installed but just have not had the time to complete the wiring ... I will have them running again in the next few weeks. The VHO are run by 2 X WH7 ballasts.

Cheers

Because of the size of the tank I needed good circulation but did not want large powerheads or multiple powerheads ... I am building a arogrocrete " cover " for the eductors so that they will blend into the back wall and hopefully I wont see them at all
