lighting
Chris, Marine lighting and/or its conversion to freshwater lighting is not in my field of expertise, so I too have been reluctant to answer your question. Actually, I’d venture to say that the marine aquarists on the Forum are probably well in the minority, although I know we do have some, and some very good ones at that. As to your question, All Glass Aquarium makes a 55 Watt (21″) 8000 K full spectrum straight pin compact bulb (if its strong enough for your needs) and Custom Sea Life makes a 65 Watt 8800 K Ultra Daylight compact bulb, although I’m not sure if this one is straight pin (you would have to check further). Coral Life makes a 65 Watt (21″) 10000 K straight pin compact bulb, if that’s still within the color spectrum that will fill your needs. I’m more familiar with the conventional T-6, T-8 and T-12 bulbs, but hope this will help; I have a feeling many others here have a similar familiarity. Ray
