Bob,
Makes sense, The hood I bought has two varible spped fans and I think I may Add two more in the backopening to get goog air flow. I live in michigan so although it does get toasty from time to time we have preety moderate temps. I am putting the tank on the first floor. Our house stays pretty cool, Thank Whirlpool for Central Air. I have priced chillers and if it becomes a heat problem I wil get one. I am Going to order my lights from hamilton so the upgrade for bulbs doesn't seem so bad. I also am getting german bulbs, people say these are supperior quality. It's sick though that the lights will be as much as the tank,hood,and stand. But hey you only live once. Thans too bush for that tax relief check.

The path to enlightenment leads to the wall switch.

ill let you know the difference between a 10000k and a 6500k on a week or soo. i have both on my 55, so i should start to see maybe one side color up more than the other. if the 6500k color better im dropping the 10k.
