Trying to post a pic. I am getting a message saying invalid attachment specified. If I go into manage attachments and click on the uploaded file it opens. Any thoughts?

good stuff
Your tank seems to be a different colour than most
Is that what it looks like in person or did the camera do that?
what is your lighting?

That is what it looks like in person. I am not very satisfied with the color. I would like a little more blue. I am running 2 175W 10K Hamiltons with 2 96W pc actinics.

I see what you mean
it is kinda green/yellowish
You could add a few more actinics. Also I hear that VHO actinics are better colour. However I have not compared them myself so I'm going by what other people say. And I can see that you wouldn't want to change lighting due to the cash.
Also you could change the MH bulb for a higher K value
just some options could work

I am trying to try 14K bulbs when the halides need to be replaced. I was running 8 55W pc's before I upgraded, 4 10K's and 4 actinics and I had a nice white/blue light. Visually appealing to me but I wanted to keep some SPS and I like the ripple effect of the MH so it was time to change.
