Default Lighting Question

Hi,

I run normal daylights and actinics. It is true that the water gets rather yellow over time, but I just add some carbon to the water for a couple days to get rid of the yellow.

The usualy mix between actinics and 6500K is about 50/50. For every actinic, you have a 6500K. In most cases, this will work and the colour is rather pleasing.

So, T8s aren't out of the question. They are still cheaper by a fair margin.

BTW WH7 with T8s...is overdriven by default (2x).

- Victor.
