Hey Delphinius... You know all that hardware we trade back and forth
 You've never gotten the pair of 175w's back  They got some batwing reflectors and have been in use since (when was that '05?) I think that was before the huge carpet had it's own tank...  While yes the 150 is a little more of a point source (it's in a ghetto housing / reflector made of an old halogen worklight) I can move it off to the corner of the tank - and still drown out all the light from the 175's with a proper / clean high quality batwing reflector... That just doesn't seem right - yes a DE bulb usually will outperform a SE, but when you're comparing 20k to 10/14k (i prefered the mix) or to a pair of 6500k's - there's no reason that one light should be putting out more lumens... Maybe I'll grab a pair of capacitors tomorow - see if that changes anything...
