    "Excellent" - Product Review by Edgar Jaramillo (Posted on 5/19/12)

    Excellent!

    Comments: Excellent choice for my plants. Bulbs arrived perfect, packaging was excellent.
    <br />Highly recommend these bulbs. The color looks really natural, little less white versus regular 10,000k from other brands, but I liked the natural appearance that these give to my tank, on top the plants started to grow immediately !

    "A Warm Glow" - Product Review by Nathan Hook (Posted on 5/2/12)

    Excellent!

    Comments: I bought these to replace the two actinic bulbs that came standard in my Wavepoint light fixture. The bulbs were shipped on time and intact, fired up immediately and added a beautiful warm glow to my heavily planted 55 gallon tank. I own 4 discus and it brought out the red in them and my plants, while also greatly increasing plant growth. I will always buy from Marine Depot for future puchases. It costs more in packaging, but at least the bulbs etc aren't smashed on arrival!

    "Aquaflor" - Product Review by Ryan Valdez (Posted on 3/23/12)

    Great!

    Comments: Significantly increases plant growth. I use two, combined with 2 MidDay. Perfect combination - in a heavily planted 65 gallon tank. I also time actinic bulbs for sunrise and sunset (blue wavelength usually used in reef tanks), and keep the main lights on for no more than 8 hours a day. The Aquaflor is a great red wavelength for plant growth. Replace every 8 months.

    Great!

    Comments: It was good for me to received just hours after I placed my order an email saying that it is was already shipped. A few more days and we got it. My tank looks and feel better now. This was my first order, but I will keep buying things as long as they give me this good service.

    Excellent!

    Comments: I upgraded from 4 regular daylight fluorescent bulbs to a 4bulb T5 HO fixture and got 2 of these aquaflora bulbs, and my 2 midday are on the way. The aquaflora bulbs alone were the same wattage as 4 regular fluorescent and has brought out the colors in my ram and cardinals, as well as the red in my plants. Definately would recommend these bulbs

    "Geisemann T5s" - Product Review by Alan Bly (Posted on 6/18/09)
    Rating
    Great!

    Comments: I purchased these bulbs because there was something "lacking" in the color that using only 10,000K bulbs imparted to my planted tank's color rendition. With the 10,000Ks alone, the greens were actually excellently displayed but the red colors on plants that possessed that, were too drab and not natural at all. These new Geisemann additions (I have half 10,000K and half Gaisemanns now) made a definite improvement to the red coloration that so much effort goes into when keeping a planted aquarium. The greens are very slightly less intense but that sacrifice it is well-worth it for the red results.

    "Sweet bulbs" - Product Review by Michael Dellaria (Posted on 4/6/09)

    Great!

    Comments: These bulbs are very nice. If you have a planted tank I recommend using these. The only problem I had was one of the bulbs isn't working and they require you to pay for the shipping of the product for the return.

    Excellent!

    Comments: I set up a new hood on my 135 gallon aquarium running 6 -36" Giesemann 39 watt T-5 bulbs (2 mid day and 4 aquaflora. Added a CO2 injector as well with adequate fertilization. Plants are growing very fast and photosynthesis is going so fast that streams of oxygen bubbles are coning out of the plants
