Quad Light

I have a 30 gallon hexagon tank which is 24in in height... and I'm planning on getting this

Which uses these bulbs.
Quad SmartPaq - 2-10000K White / 2-7100K Blue PowerCompact Bulb

What do you think? I can't find anything else that would be good for the price.

Those lamps have too short a wavelength spectrum to be overly useful in a freshwatre tank, especially a planted tank, better suited to marines. Can you not find the same kind of enclosure with 5500K - 6500K lamps?

I can't find anything that will fit my tank that was the ony one I could find that didn't have a ridiculous price tag.
