If you can't or won't replace the 400 for the 250 then I would opt for a higher kelvin bulb. I would stick with one one bulb and get a real good reflector like the LumenArc to get good coverage.
Hey Cheeks!

below is an image that will give you a rough feel for the dimensions of the tank. I tried very hard to get 2 MHs in this space but found it to be impossable with resources I had. This is how i ended up w/ the 2 Foot PFO Custom Hood with 1 x Metal Halide + 2 x 75 Watt VHO (HERE)

I'm going to hang this as high as i can in the hood to try and disperse the light a little better. I think i'll get about 7 or 8 inches off the water....
