    Watts per gallon - Reflected or not

    iQuatics do Juwel specification tubes. I am unsure if they are cheaper or not but might be worth giving them a look. I haven't bought tubes from them only the reflectors for my Juwel lights. Service I received was top notch. Andy

    Watts per gallon - Reflected or not

    HI lite is just the name given to Juwel branded HO T5's, so HI and HO mean the same thing in this case. Andy

    Lighting over non-CO2

    As an idea for you I am running 2 x 54w T5's with reflectors over my Juwel 450l Vision. The dimensions of this tank are 151cm x 61cm x 64cm. This set up has no CO2, sand substrate and minimal ferts from root tabs and a little water column dosing. I grow crypts, anubias, apongeton vallis etc...

    Vision 260 high-lite tubes

    Hi RobS, I also run 2 x T5 highlight on a Vision 450. One is the day tube and the other is the colour tube. It took me a while to get used to the slightly pink colour rendition from the colour tube but it makes my Congo's look great. I am low tech with less demanding plants but that's the...

    Vision 260 high-lite tubes

    I bought one day and one colour and got them in the BOGOF deal at my LFS. The deal on the tubes didn't state they had to be the same type of tube. Andy

    Vision 260 high-lite tubes

    I have a vision 450l and I run 1 x Juwel day tube and 1 x Juwel colour tube. The colour tube has a warm pinky colour to it which is probably not to everyone's taste. I like the colour tube as it brings the colours out in my Congo tetras. You can change the tubes to any colour you want. The...

    Juwel style HO T5 tubes

    Thanks for the suggestions. With christmas I haven't done anything about this yet. I did however find a colour tube that came with all the stuff I got in the tank auction. I might put this in and see how the tank looks. Would this be good for plant growth? Andy

    Juwel style HO T5 tubes

    Yeh I realised they are a weird size. iquatics do juwel size lamps and other stuff that's where I got my reflectors from. They have a site and sell on auction sites. I thought people on here would know of other suppliers I could check out so this is good. I just checked out the arcadia site...

    Juwel style HO T5 tubes

    Hi, I need to replace the old T5 tubes on my Juwel Vision 450. The current tubes are 2 x 54W with reflectors. I would like to get peoples opinion on what type of tubes I should buy to help with plant growth/health but still make the fish look good. I would class this as a fish system with a...
