It make the look and feel of the light going into the tank bluish. If it looks too blue for you then add a different color bulb to suit your taste.

no scientific reason like helps in plants photosynthesis at night or anything like that?
Well, first of all, photosynthesis cannot occur at night when the lighting intensity is below a certain level. Secondly, after about 8-10 hours of diurnal lighting plants will stop this process so that any additional lighting beyond the normal photoperiod will only encourage algae. Thirdly, plants will use any wavelength within the visible spectrum. It doesn't have to be blue, but blue isn't bad either. The thing is that you probably have enough blue in the white bulbs but really this is no big deal. You're not going to see much of a difference in freshwater plants regardless of what colors you use.jarthel said:ceg4048 said:Hi,
