I use sun glo in the middle and TFC at the back of the tank, reason, sunglo will shine the gold and tfc will give extra colour to the tail and fin.
If you put the tfc in front, the whole body will be reddish.

Any thought on Metal Halide lighting?

I think power consumption too high plus heat generated is too high.

but no harm in trying.

I thought RTG and xback used onli normal lighting will do liao , onli Reds u need to tan so that to bring out the colour...:022:

[morphine]

I think any combination of white , pinkish and purple lights will bring out and present the colors of Rtg and Xback very nicely .
