Which light combo looks best

[henpecked]

I just changed the substrate in my 75g planted tank from brown gravel to PFS.
I use two 10,000k T-5 (108W) bulbs,
but the white sand makes it look stark and washes out the plant colors:angry:. I did have a 10,000K+ 6,700k combo which looked better, but was too "yellow" for my taste.
Anybody out there have a good recommendation on a good combo that would warm up the plant colors and still keep it bright enough to showcase the fish. If you have a picture or video of it, that would be great since this is a matter of visual preferences:confused:

Honestly, a colormax type bulb sounds like what u want. I personally remov

Oops. I removed all my colormax cause I wanted a whiter light, but they make everything warmer looking...

....or look at led lighting? I recently changed over to led for my wild tank and the difference in depth and colour is stark imo. a bit more expensive to set up but should last alot longer and level out price wise with tubes.
