That is why all my tanks are being converted to T5. IMO, only difference between them and halides (visibly) is the shimmer.300+RR (8-10 ft x 30"x30") - Waiting to find it... Lake Tanganyikan

Mike,
Just curious, what spectrum bulbs have you been running VHO wise? If I remember right you had a few 72" VHO's over the mtoto tank, right?Comment

How much color difference is there between the 10k and 12k lights ? I like the 12k lights they give off a little more pink color and makes the color come out a little better.. I really like the yellow my leleupi now have under the 12k lights.. 10k's are nice... more white..
I am trying to decide on going to 12 to back to 10 and right now I am leaning slightly more towards the 12k lights...

These 12k VHO's I stuck in this new fixture seem to draw out more of the yellow in my trophs than the 10k's did
Now I just need new halides...can't decide between 6500k or 10k...

If you go with 10k go with the Ushio bulbs... they have been a bit more white from my experience.700g Mini-Monster tankComment

The 10ks have always been too "green" for me which I hate cause it blows through the water and gives everything a crap look.700g Mini-Monster tankComment

Yeah, I noticed even with the 10k pc's there was a slight greenish tint to it. I'm just worried the 6500k's will be too yellow...Comment

The Ushio has been pretty white when I used them.700g Mini-Monster tankComment

Was just about to say... most nice fixtures with enough light to crack tops usually comes with a fan built in.
