I pretty much have the same setup as hansnfrans but they are on tek legs (Tek light fixture). It's about 4" from water surface. I need to experiment if SPS can do well under these lights. Up and running for about 7 months now.

who has aquatinics and who has tek. any big differences, would like to hear what everyone thinks of their fixtures. thanks again!!

 

[hansnfrans]

NewSchool04 and I both have Tek. His is a 6-bulb fixture and mine is a 4-bulb retro-fit. Personally, I do not know anything about aquatinics.

I just put in an order for a 36" 6 bulb teklight. I hope it arrives before the weekend.

jski711- That's a very nice fixture :thumbsup: . As far as bulb selection, I would mimic NewSchool if I were you. He pretty much has the "perfect look" for the color of the light.
