What spectrum brings more red out then green? I want some type of spectrum to bring out the reddish hue in a red devil cichlid

Sorry, I meant what spectrum of lighting in case anybody gets confused. anyways were the red hues towards 6700k or was it towards 10,000k?

You want a spectrum that has lower energy and a lower K. This will put out more infrared and red light that higher energy green light. I believe that fluorescent tube manufacturers make a special bulb to enhance a fishes red coloration. 4200K I believe. However, this will probably not be suitable for growing plants.
