Hey people,
I thought that after I've presented myself in the "get to know each-other" section, I could fit myself here, adding my experience thoughts and help to this thread.
So let me start with my actual tank:
WHITE BELLY (when tetras "fly" over the white sand the get this white belly that looks pretty nice
)

-2 Giesseman MidDay 39W
-2 Osram 865 39W
With 4hours in the morning of 4 bulbs (AF and 865) - 10:00AM - 2:00PM followed by a break of 4 hours until 6PM and shut off by 12:00AM (they all start in an order with 30-45 minutes delay)
Filtration

Sorry for the mess but I've just finished it when the picture was taken, and didn't have enough time since the nap period started soon after...
If you like to comment or ask any questions, be glad to do so (criticism is well accepted too!).
Thanks for your time,
