    Juwel heliolux

    I changed my T5's to the Helialux system on my Lido 120 and really wish I had done it sooner. The lighting is much more controllable and appears a lot more natural as well as bringing the fish colours out really well (my Cardinals now look amazing) With the addition of the controller my fish no...

    Juwel 190 - Light Upgrade

    Probably won't be anymore light but will consume half the power of the T5's and having just changed to the Helialux it gives a more natural light and is far more versatile if used with thecontroller,and hey no large timer plug anymore:)

    New tank has LED

    TMC were doing a set that were compatible with Juwel and Eheim tanks that were less than £145 so reckon there is a good chance that your lights could be reasonable. My understanding is that if your plants are well fed (Co2 and ferts) and the tank has good circulation, then the light becomes...

    New tank has LED

    Try the LED's first. I have T5's on Lido 120 and although it is a nice light I sometimes feel that the light is too intense for some of the plants that I have added. Reckon you would be better off investing in a Co2 unit and some good ferts.
