Excellent!

The Only True Actinic in T5's. by TODD MARCH

Experience Level: Expert

Posted on 7/10/2008 from LOS ANGELES, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: This bulb is the closest thing you are going to come to UVL's classic VHO actinic--it's violet in color (NOT blue!!), and fluoresces colors (primarily greens) very, very well... If you are used to all the other cruddy T5 actinics out there (including UVL's, which is ironic considering they set the standard with their VHO bulb), which are TOO blue and TOO bright, you may not like this bulb at all--it's dim with low, low PAR, but that's not why you are using it--this bulb is for supplementation for those us that have never gotten over the POP and intense day-glow colors you can get with VHO 03 actinics. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I've used Giesemann bulbs before and have been very happy, these bulbs are great, but i prefered my prior set up- i'm running 2 150w 14k (phx) and 2 36 inch t5- prior i had used atinic and the tank had always looked great- i think these bulbs would perform best with more mixed t5 bulbs.... Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: my tank looks radical under these bulbs, i have a 6 bulb panel using 1 midday, 1 true blue, 2 pure actinics, and 2 actinic+ and im seriously in love. some zoanthids colors popped instantly even, others within a couple days. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
