Hungle64 Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Have you guys try to have one cool white and one warm white ? I am thinking of red and blue spectrum here ctaylor3737 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctaylor3737 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Have you guys try to have one cool white and one warm white ? I am thinking of red and blue spectrum here I was thinking about that to have a more of a typical light than the blue tint light that this one gives off. -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 That's why I like daylight bulbs. Pure white for real color. A "warm yellow" or cool blue interferes with the true colors of the shrimp. That doesn't make any difference if you are not selecting though. Now if you guys figure out a white color, I'm all ears. ctaylor3737 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctaylor3737 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 I was going to lol. Wife wants a laundry room seperate so people won't "see her clothes" lol. It still gives me a 20x18 room. Plenty big enough. So I'm going to hide my storage barrels over there. Probably build some shelves in there for extra tanks, equipment etc. Should keep my air pump quiet. When I put in my 8ft tank to I can put my filters there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
