My last setup: 2 x 175w MH - 2 x 110w VHO Actinic - Hamilton 14K bulbs. Absolutely LOVED the color, my favorite light setup in the entire 15 years I was in the hobby.

Two Lumen Max 3s on a Sunlight Supply Blueline(?) 250W dual magnetic ballast which is probably no longer made. Phoenix DE 14K bulbs.

Sunlight Supply maristar combo fixture with 3x250 watt DE running 14K Pheonix and 4x39 watt T5s running 22K KZ Superblues.

Here it is burning a nice hole in my wall..



^that was a full room shot of the tank from back in August 2009. It's been 5 years and I am still running the exact same fixture with the exact same bulb combo (new bulbs of course). I did repaint the light fixture to silver to change things up.

2014 FTS.
