I am about to order new lights for my JEBO pc fixture
i have x2 fixtures on 55 gallon.
a 48 inch orbit extreme x2 130 watt
with 1x 130 watt 10k and 1x 130 watt 420/460 actinic
on the jebo i have x4 55 watt
x2 10k 55 watt
x2 actinic 55 watt
all 4 of these bulbs need replacing
the problem with my tank is, my 130 watt 10k makes my tank look really green and yellowish.
but if i have on my 130 watt actinic and my x2 55 watt 10k thenmy tank looks amazing.
i want a more purple look like the 130 watt actinic and the x2 55 watt 10k give
what bulbs should i buy for the jebo
my choices are:
  • 8000°K Full Spectrum
  • True Actinic 03
    Reef Lamp (True Actinic & 10000°K Super Daylight)
    10000°K Super Daylight
i have to buy all 4

Other than the true actinic the other bulbs have more of a yellow tint to them. Half actinic and half 10K would probably give a good appearance but its all personal preference. 14k and 20k give more of a white/blue crisp look... although may not promote as fast of growth as 10k
