Hi all.

Im after some advice for the colour of lighting in my tank. My tank is a aquaone 620T, (130 litres, 2 foot tall x 2 foot wide x 1 foot deep) and is lit by two 18w pl compact flourecents. I'm having to replace my lamps before I plant as 1 is blown and the other is old. I have found a seller on ebay selling lamps suitable to my tank, and had 3 colour options, can you help me pick the best ones please, or say if none are suitable.

Pink 8000k.
Pink/Blue 8000k/12000k.
Pink/White 8000k/7100k.

I'm thinking Pink/Blue will be the best option?

Many thanks in advance!
 
If it's a freshwater planted tank. The best options are always to have 1 white and a pink. There is no need for the blue, they are used for corals in a saltwater tank.
 
Thank you, I bought the pink/white ones, once they arrive I can set up everything for planting! :)
