    I am using 2ft 4 tube versions of your Aquazonic T5 sets. It came with 12000K tubes as well. Just got some replacement 7500K tubes from Seaview 2 weeks back.

    I replaced half the tubes with the 7500K tubes....visually cannot really discern the difference in colour temperature from the 12000K.

    If you don't mind the no-brand tubes, they are going for about $9+ per tube.

    you can get 6500K and 8000K OSRAM from NA, 800K is more expensive, double the price of 6500K I think

    Re: 6400k-7200k T5 tubes

    Excuse me Guys,

    I thought of getting a 6-feet version of the Aquazonic T5 lightning, but I presume all 8 tubes (39W each, 3-feet) will have a colour temperature of 12000K.

    Assuming my tank (6-feet) is going to be heavily planted, do I have to replace all tubes with the 6500K version ?

    How much does the 6500K version from NA cost ?

    Thanks.

    It's easy to tell from 6500k and 12000k tubes IMO, 6500k is yellowish while 12000k is white.

    Off the topic, anyone can enlighten me how many k is accardia plant pro tubes? No mentioning in their cover and it looks pinkish thou, so I assume that it's 4xxxk?

    And ATI 8500k, how come it's blueish?

    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for the helpful advice from all you good folks!

    I went NA for the 3ft osram and C328 for some 2ft china brand tubes.
