Hagen A1624 14-Watt Power-Glo Fluorescent Bulb, 15-Inch

Power-Glo is my favorite flourescent bulb for acrylic freshwater tanks--not too blue and not yellow, a very good looking full spectrum bright white in an acrylic tank. (In a glass tank, it looks much bluer--too blue for my taste.) It is similar to the Aqua-Glo in color temperature (18K), but the Aqua-Glo lacks the yellow green component of the Power-Glo spectrum and looks purplish by comparison to the Power-Glo. The Power-Glo also puts out a third more lumens than the Aqua-Glo and is much brighter.

I have used this brand for years and they always make a high quality bulb for the money I would recommend this product to anyone

Unfortunately, I can't say what this looks like in comparison to any other specific light, but I can say that it looks great. I replaced an unknown bulb which was 2 years old, and everything in my tank looks more than just brighter now; it looks more vibrant. The blue background art, the green plants, the yellow rocks, and the orange fish... all of them look bluer, greener, yellower, and oranger, respectively.

Would another light have achieved the same effect? Maybe. But the point is, this is the one I bought and that's how it performed. I'm happy, and I'd buy it again. I'm not sure how much benefit there really is to over-thinking your aquarium light purchase. Just buy one that works, and trust me when I say that this one does.
