I am a personal fan of MH's for the pure aesthetic look they provide. I don't really like the flat blanket of light look of T5's (no shimmer, which is a natural affect in the wild) but you can dial in your colors alot better with them.

Looking good so far, did you use straight tap water.....

tisk tisk shoulda used rodi maybe look at investing in one.

you should drill a couple holes in the canopy and stick some pc fans in there to suck the air out. If you go with t5's you wont need a chiller with mh I think it may get warm in the summer unless your house is air conditioned.
