They don't make 175watt hqi bulbs. If you have a odyssea fixture i
think you are stuck either buying their bulb or use 150 watt bulb.

yea i have a aquamedic fixture and they are 150 watt .. was thinking maybe if i could find a bulb and boost it up a few more watts cause the ballast i have are 175 each .. i just want more color seems like these bulbs that are in it right now are a lil lite on color .. but im still running my T5s blues with it during the day ..

LED would be a great supplement to your MH. Maybe a 14k MH and some royal blue LEDs to pop some color.
