None of the links are working, what's your question?

It's the forum software, if you copy and paste it from the code box and remove the two spaces it will work fine.

 

Regardless, I'm trying to get some bulb recommendations. Right now I just have two daylight and two actincin, wonder if i should just stay with that or switch it up.
