Lighting For RTG Arowana

[sam_everist]

Hi All,

Recently got a RTG Arowana and am wondering what is the best lighting to use?

I currently have 2 x 9W 10,000k Floodlights, they worked well for the stingrays on the bottom however the Arowana is too close to them at the top I think?

Was thinking of just going back to T5/T8 tubes? what colour temp is best?
Or can somebody recommend a good alternative I.E LED?

cheers

Sorry i'm not sure what to suggest but would you mind posting a picture of the LED Flood lights?

I'd like to see how they look as i considered using them myself

Here's a crappy photo, as I say I like the look of them and of I could suspend them maybe a foot or so above the tank I woul keep them. But they are too close wih the aro always at the top.

They look pretty good to be fair like the tank seems very well lit.

I'll keep you in mind if i do get some.
