Well this is kind of embarrassing. A while back I posted a thread saying I thought my light was 8000K. Well, after actually removing the bulb from the fixture ... there it was labeled a Zoo-Med Flora Sun. The bulb has some calcium deposits on it from the previous owner so It did not occur to me to check the bulb sooner.
Soooo ... I checked out a Zoo-Med Ocean Sun 10,000K bulb and I noticed the light slightly blueish look and I wasn't too crazy about it. I also saw the Zoo-Med Ultra Sun 6500K high intensity trichromatic full spectrum daylight lamp.
I have a 75g with low-maintenance plants, so should I stay with Flora Max or switch to the 6500K or 10,000K light ..both are the same price. Has anyone ever had any of these lights to offer their opinion. The Flora max is advertised for Max Plant Growth but does not say the K value. I do not use CO2 and I'm looking to keep away from it, plus buying a T5HO and fixtures is not in the budget.
