What is better MH lights or LED

[SaltyMan]

I have a new 165g reef tank with 400w MH light and thinking of going to LED what do you think?

LED pendants are gonna cost you over $3,000 stick with the MH's

Think if you can afford the initial cost, not gonna be 3 grand you'll be very happy with the benefits of the LEDs

Pendants run $550 for 50 watts he has a 165 gal tank ................... do the math before you open your mouth.

Should I just stay with MH are they truly the best lighting for a reef tank
