Someone asked for a Color comparison between some bulbs so here is rough idea. Hopefuly the image shows up with post.
On LED's to add Sparkle. I started playng with LED's to create a mooinlight effect. And someon suggested I angle them at a 45 degree angle on the front of my tank for added sparkle. Well I originaly put in 6 Foyal Blues driving them at 250 ma but it turned out way to bright on 120 gallon for moon lights. But I had some fantastic sparkle. I uped the driver to 700MA and added 4 Blues. so now I have RB Blue RB Blue RB RB Blue RB Blue RB lined up in the front of my tank at a 45 degree angle pointing to the back. I use these as a pre darn/post dusk and run them when ever the T-5 are on as well. The sparkle is unbelievable where it constantly lookd like the water is flowing. This is even with 8 T-5 with only 25 Watts of LED's. I doubt I'd have nearly as much sparkle though if I ailed the LED's straight down.
