Lighting

[KittyKat]

so far i have figured out that most corals need special blue lighting for growth (well... Kev told me)

will ANY blue tube/bulb do? or does it have to be the "proper" type that's sold at the LFS?

would it make any difference? :poke:

[Kev]

As long as it has the right spectrum then it should be fine *runs off to get packaging*

The Actinic lighting wavelengths are about 450mm so look for lighting that has a visible wavelength (spectrum) of 450mm (and is obviously blue)

[KittyKat]

Actinic?

[Kev]

just the name given to the 'Blue' lighting used for Marines

[KittyKat]

will have a look at homebase for a cheap alternative...

[Sam]

No don't! Ones from homebase will only "expell" light within the visible spectrum. Corals also need light which is not visible to the human eye, which is what proper aquarium tubes provide.

[Kev]

also a bit of visible spectrum at 550mm.... proper Actinic lighting could be hard to acheive with domestic lighting, I think there are some LFS that sell Coralvue (I think) 9w Actinic lighting which I don't think would be that expensive

[man-alive]

Fish stores or online vendors have special blue actnic bulbs pretty cheap, I'm about to order a 20,000 K (x2) for my upcoming project it has color from yellow to blue and a little more I think. I will post updates if it works. Oh yeah they only cost fifteen dollars (US dollars) from my online dealer, don't really know what they cost in pounds or whatnot.

[KittyKat]

Meh, here in UK things are more expensive... As this post was started well over a year ago, I thing I should update it to say that I have now chosen the lighting I will be using, although I am yet to add water to the reef to be But everything should work out well in the long run
