Steve, thanks for the idea, won't I have horrible algae though with a Sunmaster, if I remember right they're 4100K and 3500K.
I'll look them up though, a good idea non the less.

sunmaster was just what came to mind, there are several bulbs that are about 5600 to 6500 K

Default acro's under PC's

Hey all . . . Yes I've been lucky enough to keep acro's / SPS under PC's . . . Mind you my tank is about 13" tall at max from the bottom of the tank and I am running 2x 96watt PC's with excellent flow and I never miss a water change. Most of my acros are kept no lower than 5 inches below water surface tho (except for my blue tip acro which is at the bottom of the tanK) . . . Depending on which acro, most of them are growing fairly slow (i like it that way tho' coz my tank is so small . . . i have a 27gal ) As for my other SPS (ie. frog spawn, candy cane, etc. etc.) I have no problems with it . .. they grow alot faster in my tank compare to the acros) . . . Check out my tank shots on the pic post
