My LFS is selling me his 1 year old, Coralife Aqualight fixture with 2 x 150 Watt Metal Halides......which would be run about 10 hours a day.......how much do you think it would raise my electricity bill?

one way to save don't run it that many hours 6 should be enough from several threads here on rc.

I have a similar fixture and mine bill did not go up that much only a couple of dollars. I went from a PC light to this one.
