T5vho + acans

[mike nickerson]

Hey everyone, I have recently been hit with the acan fever. I have 16 different Acans in a 75g. So I purchased an 8 bulb t5 tek light and will be using this lighting combo
ATI actinic
ATI blue plus
Giesman aquapink ( close to purple plus but pulls a few more colors)
Giesman actinic plus (not as bright as blue plus)
Uvl 454
Uvl actinic
?
?

Im still trying to figure out the other 2 spots to fill.
so heres my 1st. question. What do you guys think?
2nd. how high should I have my lights above my tank? (20"x48"x18" with a 2" sand bed. It will be mostly acan dominated but will still have a couple acro's.)
I want to get the best color but still be able to keep a fiew acro's.

I do, I just need to steel back my camera from my girlfriend. How do I upload pictures do you know?

Yea as far as I know the only way is to use an image host like photobucket or something like that. Then copy and page the IMG link.

I have been thinking about it just might run 6 bulbs instead of 8
