Lighting help

[cowboy898]

Hello, everyone,

I need some help with choosing some new lighting for the 75gal tank. his morning (at 5:30am) I turned on the Arctic light over my tank to check on the newest arrivals and something exploded and smoke came out of the top of the light.[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/jsteele/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image001.gif[/IMG]

I jumped out of my skin and my wife who was still in bed sleeping was not very happy[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/jsteele/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image002.gif[/IMG]. Well needless to say the arctic light on longer works and I'm not sure it can be fixed. I was thinking of get a new setup anyways. Just looks like I am going to be doing it sooner rather than later.

My question is, what make and models is everyone else using? I want something that will give me 250w or more and will give my anomies, starfish and hermits enough light.

How wide, how deep? I know marineandreef.com had the best deal on a fixture set up. Its a current 250w halide + t5s. I havent used it yet, so thats still to tell. I do use their T5s alone ,and those work great. But if you want to get a canopy, and retrofit some lights, hellolights.com is the cheapest as far as that goes.
