Amount of wattage?

[Wilty]

I like how the head thing has caught on. lol

I'm home so I could look at the ballasts. I'll give you the run down of what has happened and you'll understand why I'm going about this ass backward. I bought 175w ballasts with bulbs cheap from work. The bulbs just kinda came with the pkg. The bulbs are no good for the tank being 4700K So I have ballasts I am hoping to use. BUT NOW! I'm home and the numbers on the ballast mean something. They will run M59 Bulbs, So I think I'm going to run with 175w MH above the tank for now at least maybe in a year upgrade to 250w (I know 175 is low) But I have the ballasts and they can't go back. So now I need to find 175w 6500K M59 Bulbs.

IF I can't find M59 175W bulbs, I can buy 250W M58 ballasts from work. And I saw those bulbs just today (Iwasaki)
