6500K CFL spiral bulbs.

Is anyone using 6500k CFL spiral bulbs for FOWLR tank lighting?
Searech function isnt working.

You can use anything you want on FOWLR tanks IMO. I have seen the CFL bulbs over a local tank and they look pretty good. Not as bright as I would like, but plenty enough to see the colors and details of the fish. You need a good reflector IMO.
