Zep,

Get the 4 bulb from reefgeek. Icecap 660 upgrade, Icecap reflectors. 6 bulbs is pretty tight over a 50 gal. Try the 4 bulbs first.

Bulbs:
(1) ATI Sun, (1) ATI Aquablue, (2) ATI Blue Plus. Change a blue plus to a UV actinic in you want an actinic punch, at the loss of PAR. I have one running supliment lighting over my 180 if you want to check it out.

Does it have to be icecap? The regular ballast is $100 cheaper ;-)

The Icecap overdrives the bulbs. They are much brighter. The Icecap reflectors are also much better then the tec and other reflectors. I have heard 10-20%.

I just got 2 of these EDIT WRONG URL LOOK AT THESE http://www.hellolights.com/362x39wt5hor.html I only have 2 lamps going right now (1 of the lamps were bad, but HelloLights are sending a new on eout Thanks Adam) but even with only 1 actinic and 1 aquablue I can see the tank is brighter and the colors pop out more. Under $300 for both kits and upgraded lamps.
