I just got a 75 gallon tank from Petsmart which came with a fluorescent light fixture. I'd like to have daytime/nighttime LEDs and am most attracted to the "shimmer" effect advertised on Marineland's led fixtures. Is there anyway to get that shimmer if instead of buying Marineland's I just get replacement T8 LED bulbs for the florescent fixture? Is that "shimmer" just a marketing ploy for an effect that any light would cause with moving water?
Has anyone had success with these kinds of T8 LEDs? If this system would work out, I would then like to add a strip of nighttime LEDs separately so I can put each cord on a timer.
BTW, I'm going with an African cichlid setup.
Thanks!
