well not really. I looking to put it in a canopy. Something that will go on both sides of a 175w MH something to give my some blue and so that the first and last light on/off is not the MH.

For such a short area, I think that your best bet would be a CF retro.

Something like this:

Rich, I believe you are correct in that we are building the same thing

Here is what I'm using over my refugium. It's not all that bright but rigged with the right color tubes, it may work for your app.
