Lighting and new ideas

Okay, i just updated the homepage with a newer version of the pdf. Rob suggested ditching the macroalgae in the display. Sure...i can go with that i guess . I also added lighting to this one and simplified the layers and made the file a bit smaller. I am thinking of going with 4 70watt MH's (10K) with 4 36" PC actinics. Why so many lights? Well, if i can afford all this, i want to disperse the light more rather than having one or two really strong lights, since the tank is so long. It will also only be about 16" deep, and i don't want to burn corals or fish with watts. Check the pdf for more on this.

Hey peeps, do i need a ballast for each MH light? Please say no.
