You should hold off on the lighting. I still think 250 watts run too hot. The 150Ws with T5 lighting should be alright. I mean there is not much research done about how much difference 1.4watts make. May be you run them a little longer? I am going to try and answer these questions when I have my tank going. But for now I already have bought the 250s. Well........
