Aw...
I had these guys continue spawning right next to my hand as I was pruning their tanks plants and replanting. they just watched what I was doing but went right on with their business. LOL
I use 6500K cos that's what comes with my T5 fixtures. They do the job and the color is pretty good, a tad blue in photos sometimes but doesn't look that way in person. I never much liked the "sunlight" 5000K GE Chroma 50 tubes they always seemed too yellow to my eyes. I had some 10000K ones in my original Power Compact reef tube setup which were crisp white but have never found those exact bulbs again. All the local 10K tubes at pet shops around here are 10K ACTINIC (blue reef lighting).
