Default MH amount

small exspensive dilema, I originally was going to go 4x 400w on my 96''x34''36'' tank but seen another tank posted at the same basic size and he was running 6x 400w. over kill or would this actually look pretty cool?

I run 3x 400w over my 60" tank, so 6 lamps over 96" seems reasonable.

I run 4 halides over my 72" tank. 2 400w and 2 250w. seems reasonable to me as well.
