currently run 2 white and 2 actinic t5 compact over my aquamarine 900, 200litre marine tank
dont want to go for overhead lighting but have room to add another tube inside the hood, would be a 24 or 30inch maximum
have an interpet 25/30watt ballast here with inch and half ends which o could change to fit t8 tube
question is what tube to run really white or actinic
thanks

HI THERE!
ive got the aqua one 980 and want to change the manufactured t5 lights in the hood so that i can use better tubes what did you use? and have you taken out the ones that came with it and put a different set inside/behind the perspex cover? or any ideas /input would be great.
cheers john h.
