    I also still have a power compact too, but it's not in service right now, so it doesn't count.

    Have T5HO for my 20g, but that tank is currently holding my hermit crabs so the lights aren't being used, a CFL for my 5g and the 10g is currently being lit by a desk lamp which I think has a little halogen bulb. Lol
