I need suggestions

[Mrod91]

Hey guys,
I have a Fluval Evo 13.5
I’m looking for 10in blue led lights to add into my tank but I can’t find anywhere...

I already added an extra 12in blue light and a 12in white light.

any suggestions on where I can get these small led’s? They seem to be sold out everywhere.

or would I be able to use one of the 10in blue lights for the glo fish tanks??

Is this for a saltwater aquarium???

What are the dimensions of the tank.. Current loop makes a decent product for soft coral, fish only tank...

If your budget fits it pick an AI prime. Save yourself the hassle of excess wires / light bars and have a real sleek looking tank!
Not to mention the on-borad wifi to control it.

I have the hipargero 30w coming in the mail today to put over my fluval 13.5. I've heard nothing but good things about them. If you're just looking for the blue light, could you just use the light bar that comes with the fluval 13.5? It is very "Blue" but I don't know whether the spectrum on it is great for coral growth. That's why I'm replacing mine.

It's 13.5 gallons... Can you adjust light intensity on primes???
