Why would you want to accompany a 20k bulb? Like GSM said, it's enough watts and plenty blue. Do you have a good reflector?

Nanofool-
I think that your fine for lighting...your sps will certainly grow well under a 175w mh....no question in my mind...
If you want to alter the color temp by adding some t5's....or simply up the intensity a tad...thats your preference :) ... at this point its more preference than necesity :)
