Green is optimal for scrubbing power in this type of build, you correct. If I understand you correctly. You had CFLs, switched to PC and are now switching back to the CFLs? I looked back through your posts here and I didn't see and photos of your setup. Would you mind posting some pictures for reference? It will help others to see it. I think you mentioned you have a direct feed scrubber over the top of your frag tank, if that's true it would be the first pictures on the thread of that type of build.
