Zoo Med Ocean Sun 10, 000K High Intensity T8 Lamp, White, 18 in

Looking to give a smaller tank that crisp, deep-ocean glow? The Zoo Med Ocean Sun 10,000K High Intensity T8 Lamp in white, 18 inches long, is made to create a beautiful deep ocean effect in your marine or freshwater aquarium. Its 10,000K color runs strong in the blue regions of the spectrum, the kind of light that mimics clear, deep water and gives a tank real depth. The compact 18 inch length makes it a tidy fit for shorter T8 fixtures, so smaller reef and planted setups are not left out of the deep-water look.

• The 10,000K high intensity output creates a beautiful deep ocean effect in both marine and freshwater aquariums.
• The emission spectrum is strong in the blue regions, which Zoo Med says supports the photobiological processes of marine algae and freshwater plants.
• Zoo Med notes it promotes the growth of zooxanthellae algae, which the brand describes as essential for the growth and well being of photosynthetic corals and invertebrates.
• Ideal for all marine aquariums, and for freshwater tanks where a deep water effect is desired.
• The 18 inch length is sized to fit standard T8 fixtures of that length, great for more compact setups.
• Made in Europe, which Zoo Med says delivers ultra high quality, color, and longer burn life.
• The energy-saving T-8 size is more efficient than the thicker T-12 lamps it can replace.
• Zoo Med rates the lamp as effective up to 10,000 hours of use.
• The clean white tone helps your fish, corals, and plants show off their colors.
• One bulb that works for both saltwater and freshwater displays, keeping your choice simple.

For smaller reef or planted tanks, the 18 inch Ocean Sun lamp brings that same blue-rich, deep-water glow in a more compact size. Drop it into your T8 fixture and watch the display take on the look of clear ocean depths, even in a shorter aquarium. It is a simple, rewarding way to add striking deep-water light to a smaller setup, and a single bulb that handles both saltwater and freshwater duty with ease.
