Now im totally confused. BillD says 5000K shows better color but mine is yellowish. Others say use 10000K..Others say 6500K will show more light.
Maybe I should just put the tank on the balcony outside??? lol
I; trying to bring out the blues more in my rams and this bulb is not
helping.
I do have low light plants btw so I dont want actinic...
WOuld 10000K bulbs enhance the blues and still allow plant growth?
Thanks,
Dan
AS title says, I have an 18" 15 watt marinleand natural daylight which I belive is rated at 5000K and has a definate yellowish tint to it.
Will a bulb rated at 6500k or higher "appear" brighter to the eye?
Dont want to buy new bulbs if it wont be brighter.
BTW, the bulbs are only 2 months...

I am in Canada, so it wouldnt be cost effective for me. I can get the Coralife Aqualight T5 for about $75.
I;m more concerned about keeping the tea color water and gorwing plants without blinding the fish and losing the color of the water.
Thanks
