Hey guys,
So I just recently picked up a 10 bulb 48" ATI Power Module. Question is, what bulb configuration do u recommend? I don't want it to be too blue. Hopefully the 14 k look. I saw Mike solitude127 has been using Giessman bulbs and those are starting to catch my eyes. On my system now I'm running 8 bulb Teklights with these bulbs and I like them.

Yeah I'll look into that. I'll have to get an geissman azure bulb andI have a bunch of old ATI bulbs maybe I can mess around with it before I actually put it on the tank.
