water evaporation may be something to cope with but I doubt the amount lost will have adverse effect on the parameters and hence stressing the animals. 2cents :peace:

With MH. But this photo does not truley reflect the intensity of the MH as my camera was set to auto adjust mode. If both were on manual mode, the difference would have been obvious.. i think...

For the last 6 hours, the temp is still as per T5 - 28 degrees... hope this keeps up... :)

If you need for a special application 10.000 K - Lamps we are able to make a special production, but we need a minimum order quantity of 300 pcs.

We hope this information will be helpful for you, if you have any future questions please let me know.

The light fixture I got from Victron does not indicate any UV-protection. It only has some Italian words which roughly translates - do not use if cracked or damaged. Now talking to another lighting distributor who says he can has those fixtures with UV protection - both the ones shown in this thread and those round pendant types. Will post them once I have more information.

MY concern on the UV is towards potential harm to humans... more so as I have young kids at home that stares at the tank often...
