Best PC Actinic Bulb?
I have a C36" Coralife Aqualight Pro HQI/PC combo light. One of my PC actinics burnt out, and I want to replace both.
I wasn't a fan of the light color of the coralife actinic bulbs that came with the CL pro. What brands are out there that make a really nice, bright 65-96W actinic straight pin PC bulb? |
I actually changed mine to 50/50 bulbs when I changed them. I like using them for sunrise and you dont need that much actinic supplimintation when using 14k bulbs.

I've never been pleased with the Coralife actinics as well. I just ordered the 65W Actinics from BRS and they should be here tomorrow, so I can let you know in a few days what I think of them in a few days.
I've heard good things about these bulbs and they're a pretty great price, so here's hopin'! |
Yeah let me know how those BRS work out!

Alright, got the BRS actinics in lastnight and... holy frig what a difference! Granted my actinics probably haven't been changed in nearly 3 years but wow!
More blue than the coralifes which I always found to be more purple. Greens absolutely explode. Impressed so far and I'd recommend them, The bulbs are narrower than the stock coralife so they're a little loose in the clips. You can get arpund this by bending the clips inward or just simply turn them on a slight angle and they fit perfect. |
