Default Re: Lighting for Aro selection

Sorry but the Actnic Blue 22.000K is different from 18.000K , 22.000K / Actnic Blue A , is (by my hyphotesis) good for deepening colour intense (not to developt it ) i had tried 18.000K butit failed and seems has no effect at all,
Plant growth type of lamp is had most UV spectrum than any type of aquarium/terarrium light , its not bright but you could feel the heat radiation from the ray . The idea was to use the most UV spectrum to do the tanning for fish's pigment cell (guanophore)
Sunlight type is only imitates the colour spectrum of the sun ray it is not optimum for tanning .
You could try hagen brand , visit hagen.com or hagenusa.com .They had broad options of lamps
