    Looks pretty darn cool!

    Lighting looks almost about the same too.

    That looks GREAT! I am sure you will like the new bulbs, I sure do... Plus I REALLY like the savings on heat and energy.

    Thanks! I love the look of the lights I went with. The white mixture is just enough, but the Actinic Plus really make the corals glow.

    It's been two days and the chiller has not come on at all.
