48" light fixture

[Zach.Attack6]

The tank is gonna be and sps dominated, standard 90gal
48 x 18 x 24

I know I can go T5 but I love the shimmer of Halides so I think I want to go that way,
I don't wan't a white light want a nice deep blue, I know that in the bulb but I figure fixture and bulbs I saw radiums and they are sweet

Price range is up to 800 the cheaper the better of course but my goal is to hang the light but not to shore so doesn't really matter

250watt was what I was thinking

Looking for suggestions

2-250's and 4 T5's would work.

I don't have a favorite brand. I have a cheap fixture made in China with no brand name. It has been up for about a year and a half. But if something happens to it I'll have no company to complain to, and no where to get parts. I had a coralife fixture that the ballast went out on twice in 9 months, that I payed almost 3 time as much for, but each time the ballast went out the light was under warranty and was fixed free of charge. I know this probably doesn't help, but my point is just because it's brandname doesn't make it better.
