Fluval Marine-GLO T-5 HO Bulb

Powerful actinic blue T-5 fluorescent bulbs ideal for marine aquariums. Fluval Marine-Glo T-5 HO bulbs emit light with strong peaks in the actinic blue spectrum, making them perfect for saltwater aquariums housing photosynthetic corals, invertebrates, and other marine life. Visible blue spectrum light also accentuates blue coloration in marine fish and corals.

Use T-5 tubes with compatible T-5 light fixtures with high output electronic ballasts to help increase efficiency and tube life. For optimal performance, replace bulb every 8 to 12 months.

T-5 fluorescent technology delivers significantly more light output per area of bulb surface versus conventional fluorescent bulbs. T-5 HO technology offers big light potential when considering that two T-5 HO fluorescent bulbs can be installed in approximately the same space as a T8 or T10.

Aquarists with heavily planted aquariums enjoying CO2 injection as well as many marine reef keepers now have an efficient, affordable alternative to other high intensity forms of lighting. When considering the depth of most standard aquariums, T-5 HO fluorescent is the ultimate alternative in high light output performance in a linear fluorescent format. GLO T-5 HO offers advantages over other high output lighting, such as; relatively low heat production, even light distributions, comparable or superior spectral longevity, and energy efficiency.
