I miss fluorescent pen plax gro bulbs so much! Locally,nobody is selling fluorescents. Last year? Yes...2021 must have been the cut off for the pet-co-marts-clubs to discontinue ordering them. What I have learned on my own is that Amazon reviews are all lies or people easily satisfied ( it lights!)..because a Yescom I bought almost two years ago?..fair in light quality. Brand new,it seemed very bright but I see even my Walmart LED shop light is much brighter. Neither is even close in nice color to the fluorescent double I run with twin power glow 40w lights..that Petclub is not selling anymore.
So,the sticker shock of better LED lights is amazing. Aqueon makes you buy the fixture ($135) and then $20 more for lights I think. LED strips that are replaceable. The reviews on it seem sort of flat. Nobody is claiming great color.
I would go Fluval 3.0. if I have too. But Is there no slam bam,no doubt LED with great color for a decent price? Even buy two for more light intensity?
I would think color quality would the dominate subject on any lighting forums!...doesn't seem to be these days.
Well,time to give my old fluorescent fixture and both bulbs a big hug. I never appreciated them as much as I do now?
