All I got to say is **** them are some killer looking Pendants. Can you run the 400 and 250 w bulbs seperate of each other or not? If so what do you plan on your lighting schedule being?

Each bulb is independent of each other. I ordered the ballasts, I will need a total of four. I went with the selectable Lumatek ballasts, so I can run all 250W's or all 400W's if I need to. As far as a light schedule, I'm not really sure yet. The ballasts will all be controlled by a Profilux controller. Maybe start with one 250w on one side, then the other, followed by a 400w, then the last. I'm thinking that the controller upstairs can shut the 400w's off if the tank temp gets to high.

@Hefton I came across this build. This looks awesome! Do you still have this up and running? If so, I would love to see pictures of it.
