Edmonton's a step in the right direction just give it a little time. Before long you'll be an Oilers & Eskies fan and life will be good.

Ha, I am nicer, I will babysit and return, but what you get back might be slightly smaller.

As he said doubtful that would ever happen, he's a die hard flames/stamps fan. However I'm an Oilers fan so at least one of us got it right

just thought I would share a few pics of the difference in color between old and new bulbs.....both tanks are running tek HOT5s.....both tanks are running a 50/50 mix of KZ "new gens" and "KZ superblues".......Ive heard people say that the color spectrum doesnt change that much......the big tank on the right just got new bulbs and the small tanks bulbs are about five monthes old....
