Damn dude! T5HO's or VHO would have been a MUCH better choice!

I have one of these 8X65W Power Compact fixtures on my wife's 75G tank at the moment and OMG am I not looking forward to replacing all the bulbs at the same time every 6 months.

Yes, It is recommended you replace PC bulbs every 6 months. 8 of them at 20-30$ each is a hard hit on anyones wallet.
