Ok well i am going to be building my own canopy. Currently i have a ARO VHO ballast with 2 24inch 75w bubls 1 actnic and 1 10k retrofitted in a stock hood.
I also have 2 NO ballasts lying around.

This is what i was planning on doing. Getting another VHO ballast and 4 36inch VHO bulbs from URI. 2 super blue actnics and 2 aquasun 10k. For the additional NO bulbs i was thinking of adding maybe 2 6,500k bulbs.

Also would a reflector make the lights work better?

Any suggestions I would appreciate. Metal Halide is something i really dont want to use. What would i be able to keep under that set up?

What would the best possible setup be for 4 VHO bulbs and 2 NO bulbs?
 
Yea, answer the question above and yes, you need a reflector for the top of the canopy to reflect the light.
