I have had my 75 gal up for over a year and a half and am ready to upgrade my lighting system from a corallife aqualight and shop light fixture to a metal halide system. Problem is, i dont know what i need. I know i was told to have a minimum of 3.5 watts per gal to keep corals alive and in the upper 5's to grow them and that's what i want to do, but when i looked for some MH the wattage was really low. Also i would like one with moon lights. And all at the same time, i dont know what a good price for a fixture for my 75 gal is. I have been told 700 but was hoping that they are closer to the 500 range. Not only that but i don't know a good one or a bad one. WHich should i stay away from and which should i go after? Please help. If anyone could post hyperlinks with the products or give some info that would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

P.S. I tried to use the search tool so i wouldn't have to bother anyone but it's always too busy.
