Are you using the spacer block on the inside of your tank? If not, you should be. Can't tell very well, but it looks like your mount is a little tilted. Other than that.. Looks good.

You do understand that your tank is probably too long for a single metal halide bulb without supplementation? Especially at about 5'' above the water...

Don't waste your time with pc. You went the right direction with the Metal Halides. Stay there.
