ATI Aquablue or UVL 14K?

Mark75 · 09/17/2007, 12:45 PM

I want to replace one bulb in my Nova Extreme for more par and make the colors "pop" better. Which bulb do you recommend? Is there a better bulb than one of these two? My tank looks hazey, washed out kinda with the factory bulbs. It is not so much the wrong spectrum, just not very brilliant. I am going to replace all the bulbs over a few months.

Aquablue I heard the UVL was a little pink

I would also go for the AB I run two in my 5 bulb setup.

Thanks, is this my best choice? My fixture has two 460nm Blue bulbs and two 10,000k's in it now.
