thanks for any advice
About average price-wise. But barely adequate light output for a well
planted tank, unless you stick with low light species. You can find
some excellent values in compact fluorescent fixtures at

Most of their fixtures come with 50/50 bulbs, but they may be
10,000K/Actinic - they're pretty obliging through email if you would
prefer they switched the bulbs for 6500 or 6500/10000. I've not found
anywhere on the net that comes close to their prices. Their shipping
is high, but so is everyone's these days.
