I'll try and get pics for you tomorrow.

I like the AM and KZ bulbs.. I find them very suitable, and fair prices too.

I don't really find they pump out much heat.. no where close to MH's.

i am using the same fixture and bulbs but 48' and 14k (wicked color for 2 bulbs). this is on a 45g the glass top gets warm but i have never thought it to be unsafe. i use the 24' (with hagen bulbs) on a fw tank on the glass as well and no worries.
