Well my lights came yesterday and I hooked them up. They are for my planted tank I'm currently working on. The bulbs are 1 x 5000K, 1 x 5500K, 2 x 6700K.

The First Pic is my entire hood, 4 sperate 55W bulbs and reflectors. You can also see my 6 moonlights, which happened to be on.

This pic is just the right half of the hood so you can see it closer.

Took me a couple hours to do it. The lights come on Saturday while I was at an airshow. So when I got back I was exhausted but I still had to do it lol.

Hehe. I just order plants for my tank should be here tommorow. Now that I finished my plant research it's time to find out what fish I am going to add. Even harder than plants heh.
