Thanks Jason. They're a bit young, but I hope to get at least couple pairs. I'm pretty sure I've got a NS pair, hoping the WA pair up too.

This is sort of a test. Posting a video. It's about 60 sec.

Very nice combination. I myself was thinking to get 2 blue diamond or 2 neon saphhire with 2 Fiamma Rossa and 2 Albino millenium golds. Think thats also a nice Rainbow off colors.

Very nice. What kind of lightning is on the tank? Why did you not place your heater horizonal? I placed mine horizonal so I could drain mt tank lower without having to unplug the heater. What do you think?

The cord's actually not quite long enough. The power strip is on the floor and the top of the tank is almost 5 ft high. Plus almost 2 ft back to the bottom. I could get an extension cord, but not really worried about it. I pull the heater to the bottom for changes, which lifts the strip off the floor, and replace it when I'm done.

I would recommend an extension cord for 2 reasons, 1: It gives you the length you need to lower the heater in tank, and 2: It gets the power strip off the ground and allows you to do a drip loop. That is very important for tank safety. Please consider that a few dollars can potentially save you a huge headache or injury.

Good point. I might be able to just zip tie the power strip to the stand (gorilla rack) and get that result without any extension cords. Thanks.

No, just a 4' 5000K T8 fluorescent.
