You Choose the Length and Spectrum
NOTE: This is a tube only, no power supply. To be used as an add on or replacement.
Fixed Spectrum Spare/Replacement Tubes (aka XB5) are for building custom systems or for use aas a spacre or replacement.
As a guide, the Flora Sun Blend is the most popular for fresh water tanks because it naturally highlights blues and reds in fish and also has a perfect spectrum for growing
plants and the 120000K Coral Sun tube is the most popular for marine tanks.
High Tech Anti Glare Rhombus lenses
These power led tubes feature high tech 2-in-1 Anti Glare Rhombus Optic lens and reflectors for maximum output and awesome shimmer! Available in 120°, 90°, 60°, 45° and 30° beam angles to target specific depths and to achieve specific PAR. Lenses can be easily DIY swapped if your needs change.
Available in Black or Silver
These Fixed Colour lights are available in smooth anodised Silver or Black colour.
Hood Mounting
Hood mounting requires a little diy because all hoods are different, each tube comes with a pair of universal mounting clips to help make this an easy job.
NOTE: You should have adequate airflow under the hood to prevent overheating and have glass lids to prevent excess humidity.
Doing this will LED lights will have a will have
Glasstop Mounting
And finally, the tubes are so light and compact they can be laid directly on glass lids.
Most of the heat on these lights is projected upwards and very little heat is projected down so the glass won't get too hot.

The beam angle affects how wide or narrow the light beam will be. A lower degree beam angle like 30 will have a narrower beam than 45.
Narrower beams produce higher intensity and PAR directly below the light but that intensity tapers off as you move out from the center.
Wider beams have a lower intensity and PAR directly below but the intensity does not taper off as quickly.
Choosing an appropriate beam angle for your tank dimensions and lighting needs is not an exact science but use this table as a general guideline.
Optic lenses are DIY swappable so if you change your mind later you can buy a different beam angle and swap them over.

The PAR shown in the table is for one Flora Sun Tube. Some spectrum tubes have higher PAR than this e.g.6500K Cool White, and some have lower e.g. Deep Red Highlighter.
PAR will be approx 88% higher for more multi tube sets.
- This is a high light system and is fully dimmable so you can run it at lower than full capacity if you don't need that much light.
If you want to add more lights to this set later we'll provide a power supply and cabling capable of running up to 5 x 60cm lights
Look in the product description for mounting hardware details. Each bracket has room for up to three lights or you can buy more brackets from our Accessories page if you want to spread the lights out.

Choose Yes include a Power Supply if you don't already have one
For multi tube sets, 1 dimmer only means it will control all tubes together, 1 dimmer per tube means you can dim each tube separately.
