    vho vs pc

    Originally posted by Saltydog I would go with 4) 110 VHO's. 2) actinic and 2) 50/50 bulbs. Ice Cap 660 ballast. IMO, Salty I agree also i'd get the "URI" bulbs which are vho bulbs with built in reflectors so you don't have to worry about getting a reflector built into your canopy.:D
