Anyone local running 400's on a 90 or 24" tank?

I'm doing a trade for a pair of M59's and am going to jump up. I'd jump to a 250 but my current bulb puts out more par than half of the 250's anyway especially any that have a kelvin over 10,000K. So if I want to go to a higher kelvin, I really have to jump up to the 400's. I'm looking for a little advice on what bulb to pick. I don't want a smurf tank but I would like a little bit of blue and par shouldn't be an issue in picking the bulb at 400 watts.

Let me know if you are wanting to sell the 250s. With price of course.

I'm going up from 175's.

I had 2 - 400's on the 90 Gallon I setup before the move. I had more growth in that tank in the 3 months it was setup, then I had in the past.

What type of bulbs DE or SE? If SE I really like my 10k EVC..

Single end since I'm going to have M59's on it for now. I'm really thinking about Iwasaki 6500's and then short term using my T5HO's for supplement and dusk/dawn but I may have to go old school with a pair of vho actinics.

If you sell the 175 I would love to take them off your hand
