I am planning on picking up a rose queen this week. Does anyone know of a good bulb to use on the tank for best color?

I actually did the same thing about a month ago with a real nice Rose Queen addition and the guy at the LFS sold me 4 Hagen PowerGlo's (I may be screwed up on the name for $15/each). They really pop the red in the Rose Queen and my Parrots. Bottom line--they are now in my garage. It looked too artificial to me and extremely dark. I put two of the next bulb up with Hagen ($25/each) in the front and the back bulbs I went with the a Coralife VHO. If you want your tank at home to look like a restaurant tank with big color up front and dark background, the first setup will do that. You will love the Rose Queen--mine is not overly mean (the red devil scare). A local LFS here is supposed to get in an 11" one this week. I may add a second. The first one cost me $120, as a point of reference.
