I would suggest 250 watters as they would provide a better light for your tank dimensions .... plus you would be a lot happier.
the 175's won't penetrate as much as you would like on a 75 gallon tank!

Stick with VHO for your Atinics. The VHO is suppose to blow the t5 away for Atinic and the price would be a lot less.

I run 2 250w MH at 10k
And 2 Actinic VHO's on an IceCap 660... which i need to change to URI SuperActinic as soon as Bang lets me know where he got em!
:thinking:
The MH's reach nice all the way to the bottom and I have had great luck with Sps even at lower depths, so 250's are the way to go, just make sure you have good ventillation cause they get HOT
