I just gave some away, but I trim mine about every two weeks. I run a 2700K Soft White 90W CFL bulb.

I replaced my 6500 with a 2700 just because I felt the bulb was getting old. It grows either way. I think I grew a little faster under the 6500, but I might of just had more nutrients in my tank before. I would assume that the 6500 would be better. I would assume that 10k would be even better, but I think cfls only go up to 6500

 

[tattoofreak]

ok so im pretty much out of luck here. Spangler do you have alink to one of thiese lights preferably at HD or lowes?

I used these with some success.

I did get one of these in a trade and the Chaeto Growth Exploded.
