I have a 20 gallon long with a 30 inch light set up with dual T5's HO at 24 watts each. Has the usual 10K daylight and the actinic "blue". I just got this which is nice but I hear the bulbs dont last. I am considering going with two daylight bulbs but if wondering if it will look too yellow. What brands will fit this fixture does anyone know? I read that Coralite does not work and I tried a Zoo today and it didnt light. They look to be the same T5 lights. But for whatever reason this one didnt light. Anyone using this unit with any other bulbs. And if I do all daylight what will it look like. It is a planted tank. Any inpout would be welcome. Love the unit but really looking for that super brite crystal clear white light bright lighting. Thanks! on my first post! Hoopman
