They don't make those bulbs in the size I need. I am limited to 6,000k, 10,000K, 12,000K, purple or blue actinic... that's all they make in my size...
Yea, I don't think the 12,000K bulbs will give me exactly what I am looking for, but I have a guy here in town willing to strike me a deal with...
They will probably work fine for softies, but I don't think you will see too much growth. I had the 20w Coralife Mini Compacts and I was seeing some...
Yea, I knew that much... I was just wondering if there would be any noticable difference in the growth from a 10,000K to a 12,000K because it's such...
Just wondering what the difference is in growing coral between these 2 bulbs? I know that the 12,000K are a little more "bluish" to the eye... but...
I have two 12,000K T5 bulbs with a blue LED strip and I want to get either a purple LED strip or a UV LED strip. The UV LED strips are hard to find...
Dunno yet... I'm still lookin at different LED strips. Even the ones that are water proof for under glow for bikes and cars. They are very bright and...
Will a purple LED strip work just as good as a UV strip?? Or is purple and Uv basically the same?
Ok. Thanks!
Ok. Cause I was either going to get another Blue LED strip or a UV LED strip... I just didn't know which would be getter to bring the colors out :P
So, I was thinking of adding a UV LED strip to my fixture to make the flourescents come out more in the SPS I have and the LPS and zoas. I am getting...
So... been having a little trouble choosing bulbs that look nice but will also let the SPS grow, which is really hard with only a dual bulb fixture...
OK. I am on a website right now and just about to click order lol... you think two 12,000K bulbs will be enough go grow the SPS? Will they have more...
Yea... I did a whole lotta lookin around and they don't make 14,000K in the size bulbs I need :'( The highest bulb I found is 12,000K in the 16.5"...
I like the more blueish coloration to reef tanks, brings out the flourescents nice too... I only have a 2 bulb 20" T5 fixture over my 10gallon reef...
I need 18 inch bulbs though :P But yea.. I like the sound of those bulbs... there is no 18 inch that I saw though.
no, I'm using a single 10,000K and an actinic in teh fixture. It's only a dual bulb fixture... but i liked more of a blue color to the tank, so I...
So. Just got a new dual T5 fixture for my 10gal and I got 5 new sps coral, but the thing is that I don't know what bulbs I should get? the sps I got...
Just need some help identifying these SPS frags. I was told what they were but 2 of them I'm not too sure if the person was right or not. I don't...
Yea, I think that's starting to split.
