so you think you have the perfect mix of bulbs?

i was thinking it would be productive if i started a new thread to compare tank "look" with dif bulb combos

if everyone followed some basic thread rules ie,

1) 1 FTS pic / lighting combo - try to duplicate actual look as close as possible with pic
2) state tank size
3) state the bulb combo they are using, bulb length/wattage if overdriven and # of bulbs
4) absolutly NO COMMENTS - just pics! so people can quickly run through a bunch of pictures to see what dif bulb combos look and feel like and maybe not have to go through 100$ in bulbs
