Default Failed supplement lighting (pictures)

Tried the same as JDigital did in foreverfortune recent thread. Not sure if the WB is the same as tag shows auto but probably close. Since the MH just turned off I'll try again tomorrow in manual. Overall though, to the eye tank is a little more blue than all the pictures.

MHs are 2x250W 14K Ushios and T5s 2x54W Helios Super Blu 03. The MHs are 9 months old, the T5s are at least a year and half and were used when I got them. As I really only notice the T5 as dusk/dawn and probably haven't had them off with the MHs on since I installed them, never notice any shift.

Think this was a good exercise as shows the T5s aren't doing a whole lot of supplementing.

First picture is MH and T5, second picture MH only, third picture T5 only.
