Now that Custom Sealife is out of business, What bulbs can i use (65 watt and 96 watt)? I really like the 8800k bulbs Custom Sealife made, is there anything like this i can get from another place?

Hellolights http://www.hellolights.com/

The 8,800K are basically really white(just like 10,000 just whiter)...Don't they wash-out the fish's colors?

I have those from Hellolights. I don't think they wash-out the colors of my fish. If you are looking to "increase" coloration of your fauna, get 9325K :idea:

Jay, the problem I face is light my 58g...I don't like the fact that 9325K bulbs don't come in 96w format. And using 4x55w would be an overkill, wouldn't it? :?

Well. Depends how far you want to go with maintenance and how much time you want to dedicate.

You mentioned 96watts over 58gallon tank. 1 or 2 bulbs ? If you meant 1 bulb, then we are talking different ball game but if you were talking about 2 bulbs then you have 192watts --> 3.3wpg vs. 220watts --> 3.8. Not a big difference

I have 55G with 4x55watts for the amount of 4wpg and although it requires "a lot" of work, I enjoy it. :wink:

I'm really intrested in trying out the 9325K bulbs, Ghori's tank looks really good even though he uses All-Glass's lights.

Which are 9325K. Those standard All-Glass bulbs are GE AquaRays 9325K and ~81 CRI.
