The Powerchrome Super Actinic 80W – 1450 mmGiesemann is a high-performance T5 fluorescent tube designed to faithfully reproduce natural actinic light from the deep sea. It intensifies coral fluorescence, enriches fish coloration, and ideally complements HQI or LED ramps to provide full spectrum to your reef aquarium.

Actinic light for spectacular colours

In nature, fluorescent corals live in areas where light is dominated by blue and UV wavelengths. The Powerchrome Super Actinic reproduces these conditions with a spectral peak at 421 nm, stimulating coral proliferation and vitality. Its slightly white/purple finish provides a unique visual effect, enhancing the natural fluorescence of your invertebrates and shellfish.

Compatibility and use

This tube is ideal for:

• 🌈 Strengthen the fluorescence of hard and soft corals.
• 💡 Complement LED lighting for a full light spectrum.
• 🐚 Replicate the natural conditions of deep reefs.
• ⚙️ Fit any standard T5 system (24W, 39W, 54W or 80W depending on the model).

Thanks to the use of high-quality phosphors, the Giesemann tube maintains exceptional colour stability over time and a constant light output.

Key Benefits

• ✅ Pure actinic spectrum (421 nm) promoting coral growth and coloration.
• 💎 Unique white-purple light rendering highlighting fish and invertebrates.
• 🧪 Long service life with outstanding colour stability.
• 🌊 HQI/LED compatible for a full marine spectrum.
• 🔥 Stimulates the natural fluorescence of rare corals and shells.

Récif'Art Advice

For the best look, combine the Super Actinic with a Blue Plus or Aquablue Coral tube from the same Giesemann Powerchrome range. You'll get a balanced spectrum that intensifies fluorescence while promoting natural coral growth.

💡 Replace your T5 tubes every 10 to 12 months to maintain consistent light quality and prevent spectral drift.
