thanks for the help. I'm thinking I'll go with a T5 setup instead. Now I'm debating what kind of setup would be the best for the lowest cost in the long run. Either of the two:

two 4' teklight retrofits (4 bulbs in total, 2 ballasts) over the one tank, then buying the same all over again for each tank I add until I have 4 tanks in total.

Or 4 icecap reflectors and endcaps, and a single icecap 660 ballast. higher cost up front, but expandable in the long run...
