Low Kelvin bulbs?

[Jedi_Reefer]

I was wondering what would be alright for Caulerpa growth in the Refugium?. As it seems I can only get 2700K & 3300K bulbs locally. Are these okay?

The intensity is more important than the color temp. The low temp bulbs generally but out plenty of the blue, it's just all the other colors included overwhelm it as far as our eye is concerned. High K bulbs generally just remove those other colors, not put in extra blue. So in short, yes those bulbs should work just fine for caulerpa.

hehe, the only fish that ever swam up to me while diving and bit me have been damsels, in fact a domino once managed to even draw blood :eek1:

Good idea! I like eating fish just as much as fish do
