Power compact combination

[melanotaenia1]

Hi guys quick question: I am replacing my power compact bulbs: I have 6 55 watt bulbs on top of my tank and one 96 watt bulb in the back. Total of 7 bulbs. My question is what combination of lighting would you use? Would you guys use 7 50/50 bulbs, or maybe 4 daylight and 3 actinics, and since one is 96 watt, would that would be a good bulb to be 50/50 and the other 6 alternate actinic and daylight? I am not sure how to order them, so any advice would be appreciated by any lighting GURUS out there

Cheers

If I had that set up, I would use 2x6700k, 2x10,000k, 2xactinics and 1x6700K (96w). That is if you can get 55watt 10,000k bulbs. I never noticed before.

If it were mine I would use 3 x 55 actinic 03, 3 x 55 10K, and one 96 half 10k/actinic bulb. I really like the look of these bulbs myself
