Light dependent corals in the sea are inhabited by so-called zooxanthellae, single-celled algae, which provide the host through photosynthesis with nutrients. Depending on the natural location of the coral (and depending on their depth), there is a more or less blue coloured light, to which the zooxanthellae have adapted. Apart from the increased amount of blue in the light spectrum there is as well a sufficient light intensity required.
GIESEMANN T-5 / aquablue- coral has a very nice blue/white light spectrum for brilliant colours from your corals and fish. It is ideal in combination with the GIESEMANN T-5 / actinic-blue, super-purple or super-actinic to produce exceptionally beautiful color effects and the ideal light for all marine creatures that live in salt-water and reef aquariums. A special 30:70 combination of 6000K and 22000K (approx) phosphor blend. It is specifically designed for reef aquariums mimicking sea water to a depth of one to twenty meters. It can be used for growing SPS corals up to 70cm in the aquarium.
GIESEMANN T-5 / aquablue- coral are available at all power levels 24, 39, 54 and 80 watt.
