P Plague O.o Aug 4, 2010 718 0 0 Miami, Fl Aug 15, 2010 #1 So I just ordered a light fixture and it brings two bulbs: 54W HO T5 Bulb Daylight 12000K, and 54W HO T5 Bulb Actinic Blue. I have a 55g planted tank and was wondering if these lights would be beneficial to my plants or should I get different bulbs?
