what color are the tubes you have in now? personaly I would have gotten something like the hagen power glows if you are insistant on going at it with NO's they are a high output and almost a 10000K color. I use two of them and two 6400k on my planted tank, and the power glos made all the colors pop out.

but still lights will only intensify color if you have some to start with, other wise brown will look brown. so try a couple chunks of something like a green digitata and see how it does.
