Not bulbs---- HO / NO ? Not sure , they are Full spectrum, 18 inches from light to plant
A dual bulb T5HO over a 40b can be high light if the plant is positioned correctly and is not being shaded. Example: If the fixture is positioned at the rear of the tank then the front of the tank is going to have much lower light than the rear. Try adjusting the fixture's position so the plant is right under the light. Remember, it's not going to turn red overnight, and if it is a new plant (and depending where you got it) you will need to give it time to acclimate from emersed to submersed growth.
