The lighting is painfully yellow, even with 4x48" actinics on an Icecap 660. I guess I should replace them then. I bought the bulbs used so I've never actually seen fresh Iwasakis over my tank. Should they really appear white? I thought Iwasakis have a reputation for yellowish light. Would the yellow light contribute to algae more so than whitish light?
Thanks again.

But like Christy says, don't replace the bulbs first, unless you make your own money.
