![]() Compact Fluorescent Aquarium Bulbs (SHO & Standard). * Standard CFL fits ALL incandescent fixtures, converting your standard bulb to a high output Daylight aquarium bulb.* Bulb length for base of bulb to the tip= 5-1/4" (13 cm). Diameter (width) is 1" (2.75 cm) * Great for planted aquariums, with Kelvin range (PAR)best for plants (5000K- 7500K). For an example of the nanometer output of this bulb, please see the color graph in the PAR section of this page: "Aquarium Lighting" * Uses only 15 Watts with a lumen output similar to a 75 watt standard bulb (with a 62 lumens per watt output)* Superior to standard power compact bulbs for aquariums; Wider Nanometer range and higher Lux (Both important to fish and plants) * Safe for Fresh or Saltwater. *Great idea for inexpensive yet plant capable aquarium hoods; simply purchase a basic aquarium hood with two incandescent sockets (most LFS have these) and instead of using standard incandescent aquarium bulbs, use these bulbs instead! Available in two colors: *6400 K Daylight- $8.99 *12,000 K Blue- $8.99 NOW AVAILABLE!- SHO Power Compact Bulbs.The latest in aquarium lighting technology! These can be installed in your hood using a standard incandescent fixture or for better illumination hung pendant style above your aquarium (as is common for reef aquariums). This is not your Grandmas Power Compact bulb! Great for planted tanks or Monster Fish tanks. Please click to enlarge (helmet shown for size comparison). -This is an awesome bulb for planted Freshwater aquariums! -A great bulb for DIY high intensity aquarium lighting projects! High output self-ballasted aquarium bulbs, no special ballast required 6400 K Day Light Bulbs Ideal for planted Aquariums (including Marine Refugiums), especially large tanks! In part due to the high PAR rating. PAR output is important for photosynthesis in plants or sybiotic algae in corals (these bulbs are all you would need for a planted FW aquarium, however I would recommend complimenting these bulbs with VHO Actinic blue/white 50/50 in marine reef tanks) 8000 hours average life 85 watt SHO produces 5100 lumens, the equivalent of a standard 425 watt bulb while the 105 Watt produces 6300 lumens, the equivalent of a standard 525 watt bulb 60 Lumens per Watt Can be used in freshwater or marine The SHO is a good compliment to VHO (50/50 or actinic) in marine aquariums, especially as it pertains to symbiotic algae growth necessary for corals. Research has shown that many stony corals, clams, and other sessile species that depend on photosynthesis of zooanthellic algae not only thrive but also propagate when maintained under Power Compact lighting alone. Can be mounted in an aquarium hood using a standard incandescent fixture. Or better, this bulb can be mounted pendant style (similar to many Metal Halide applications) using a reflector. Can also be used for Greenhouse applications For more aquarium lighting information, please see this article: AQUARIUM lighting, Kelvin, Nanometers and more *Coming in March or April; 65 Watt SHO rated at 3900 lumens *85 Watt SHO Bulb- $31.99 - Bulb length (after socket): 10" (25.5 cm) *105 Watt SHO Bulb- $35.99- Bulb length (after socket): 10" (25.5 cm) *Reflector and socket for SHO Bulbs- $45.99 (not required for use, see picture above) - Diameter 12-1/2" (32 cm) This reflector (with your own socket, not included but available at almost any hardware store, Wal-Mart or similar) can turn your SHO bulb into a relatively inexpensive pendant light which will provide better illumination and heat dissipation.
