The reason for my list of bulbs to choose from is based on their par values.. Most of the bulbs you have listed are not what I want.. I have both a Fiji and Gman over my tank right now and don't like either of them really...

If you want white, then I would suggest to go with.


- Actinic+ (22,000k) or the Aquascience 22,000k (jlaquatics sell 24w bulbs of these, they are just currently backordered)
- Giesmann AquaBlue+ (60% actinic, 40% 15,000k)
- AquaScience 15,000k (gives off bright white light)
- Fiji Purple (I find it balances the tones and pops the red coloration)
- Aqua Science 15,000k
- Giesmann AquaBlue+ (60% actinic, 40% 15,000k)
(- Actinic+ (22,000k) or the Aquascience 22,000k --- If you don't go with the fiji purple)
