UVL 22 Inch 24W/40W AquaSun 10000K T5 V-HO Fluorescent Bulb Information



Allow your fish to swim around a beautifully illuminated aquarium with the UVL 22 Inch T5 V-HO Aquasun Bulb from Pet Store. This is a type of marine lighting, which has been especially manufactured to create a sense of nature inside the tank. It is quite energy-efficient, limited to consuming only 24 to 40 watts of power for the whole duration that it is switched on. While the product doesn’t come with its own fixture, you will find that it is easy to locate a casing that can accommodate the size of this lamp.

Measuring with a length of 22 inches, this bulb is especially fitted for regular-sized aquariums. It is mainly employed for casual lighting because of its 10,000K color rating. Nevertheless, it stands above the other brands because of its use of triple phosphors, giving you a combination of three pigments to create a solid beam that is unlike any other, in terms of appearance. These multiple tints enable you to release a shade that is perfect for all times of the day.

With the UVL 22 Inch T5 V-HO Aquasun Bulb, you are guaranteed that your fish are enjoying a home that is equipped with a radiance, which makes them feel more comfortable and at home. Plus, the unique color combinations help promote the stunning features of your fish that you haven’t even seen before.

"pink purple" - Product Review by Doug Goldenberg (Posted on 1/14/12)
Rating
Average

Comments: Very strong pink-purple cast. That's OK if you want it though. But kind of artificial looking. I'm thinking one would be good, to bring out some of the redder colors in the livestock, but mostly use crisp, real blue-white bulbs.

"Light is pink" - Product Review by Piper Keairnes (Posted on 2/19/10)

Below Average

Comments: The AquaSun bulb looks pink next to my other bulbs and produces an overall pink color cast to the entire tank.
<br />
<br />In this picture (http://pkeairnes.smugmug.com/Other/Misc/P1010341/792024018_8NWcC-L.jpg), from left to right, the bulbs are:
<br />
<br />D-D Giesemann AquaBlue+ (looks white)
<br />UVL AquaSun (looks pink)
<br />UVL Super Actinic 420nm (looks blue)
<br />D-D Giesemann AquaBlue+ (looks white)
<br />
<br />The light assembly is a Current SunDial 30". The original assembly had two 10K and two Actinic, which produces a color of white with a hint of blue. The first thing my kids said when they saw the new lighting was "Why is the aquarium pink?" Not exactly what I was going for. The UVL AquaSun is not a 10K white and will need to be replaced.
<br />
<br />You apparently need more than 1 Super Actinic to balance out the pink in the AquaSun.

Unsatisfactory

Comments: Such a terrible color! Everything seems to Flourish Beautifully, however the color is a reddish color. If you arent concerned about the color, and only concerned in what it does its perfect.

"Bulb works good, bright white" - Product Review by John Gill (Posted on 3/7/09)
Rating
Excellent!

Comments: The light from the bulb is a very crisp bright white light. I use it along with 2 super actinics and an actinic white over my 30 gallon tank. I am running fish only right now but will be adding rock and going reef in the next few months. Driving the bulbs with an icecap 660 puts out a ton of light and these bulbs handle it well, but you must keep air flowing over the bulbs to cool them or they will burn up. Overall the bulbs are very good to supplement t5 actinics and add some brightness to your tank.

Comments: I was a little disappointed with the color. But with actinic supplementation it looks OK. I just ordered the 14k and hope to have better results, although overall i was a bit disappointed polyp extension is phenomenal compared to before!

"Good light" - Product Review by Miguel Uc (Posted on 5/2/08)
Rating
Average

Comments: Well, not exactly what I was expecting. It's not really a white light it lights up with a lavander color. However it does provide a good spectrum. So far I haven't had any problem with my corals adjust. I'm assuming the 12000k is the white light by this manufacturer. I also added Antinic + bulbs and those bulbs are great.

"Great t5s" - Product Review by Brandon Snow (Posted on 4/16/08)

Excellent!

Comments: These lamps look great. Despite being 10k they still add color to my corals. If you're trying to balance out actinic or a strong 20K this is the lamp for you. Yes, recommended.
