Default Luke i am your father!*gasp*

So, since in addition to the 3g pico setup for my desk which im holding off til i get back from Pheonix as I'll be gone for a week.

Working on setting up 33g long as reef, not too common size u see. Pickup the lighting tomorrow, a new 260w coralife system so figure 7.8w should let me keep everything short of anemones and sps!

Which i just dont care for sps anyway

So Im guessing that the lights will be PC, why not shoot for T5s? Better color and less heat.

I was debating about getting another atnic t5 single strip 48" though just to add more blue to the tank as the pc's just put enough blue for me

what bulbs do you have that you arent happy with the blue?

its all preference though, if u like the colors from the PCs better, Id say stick w/ em. Take a look at my pics, all T5, a lil off of the real color (that being more blue.
