I am in the process of building a 375g tank. I have decided to go MH with LED supplementation. Tank dimensions are 96" x 30" x 30". I will be using Lumen Bright SE Large Reflectors with Giesemann Megachrome Crystal 17,500K SE 400W bulbs. Can anyone recommend a good ballast for this combination. I know choices a slim theses days. The reading/research I have done, seems to point to Hamilton, Luxcore or lumatek. Is one of these the best or is there something better?
 
Any of those are fine. Select-a-watt might be nice so that you can go down to 250w if you ever need too... or even overdrive the MegaChromes (they can handle it).

Even though the choices are slim, those are solid choices and like choosing between redhead, blonde or brunette... cannot really go wrong.
