If you have room you could add a little (18 inch 15 watt) actinic bulb over the tank. It would help with the color and light penitration at the bottom of the tank.

I'm going to have to DIY a different canopy to accomplish that. Who makes a light such as you describe?

You can get those little balasts from any Walmart or Canadian tire. The ones that you are supposed to hange over your sink for added light or whatever. They come with a full spectrum bulb though. I paid like $20 for mine then went to the LFS and bought the actinic bulb for it. If you want to pay a bit more you could go straight to the LFS and buy a tiny actinic setup, they make then pretty small now.
