The Powerchrome T5 Actinic Blue 24W – 550 mmGiesemann is a high-quality fluorescent tube specially designed for saltwater and reef aquariums. Its intense blue light faithfully reproduces the light conditions of the great sea depths, where the majority of corals and invertebrates develop naturally.

Blue light for vibrant corals

With a light spectrum of between 400 and 510 nm with a peak of 420 nm, Powerchrome Actinic Blue enhances the natural fluorescence of corals and stimulates their biological growth. Ideal for highlighting colors during morning or dusk lighting phases, it provides an authentic and soothing marine atmosphere .

The advantages of Powerchrome Actinic Blue

• 🌊 Enhances the blue fraction of the spectrum to mimic light from the depths.
• 💡 Pure actinic spectrum from 400 to 510 nm, peak emission at 420 nm.
• 🐠 Promotes zooxanthellae photosynthesis and coral health.
• 🌈 Accentuates fluorescence and natural colors under blue light.
• 🧪 High-quality fluorescent substances ensure long-lasting colour stability.
• ⚙️ Perfect in combination with the Aquablue Azur, Aquablue Coral tubes or the MEGACHROME HQI bulbs.

Directions for use

For a balanced light output and optimal visual effect, pair the Powerchrome Actinic Blue with a full-spectrum tube such as the Aquablue Coral or AzurGiesemann. This tube is ideal for:

• The main lighting of reef tanks or decorative marine tanks .
• The dawn and dusk phase in LED or T5 hybrid lighting programming.
• Fluorescence stimulation during nocturnal observations.

Technical characteristics

Recif'Art recommendations

For full reef lighting, combine the Powerchrome Actinic Blue with Aquablue Azur and Aquablue Coral tubes from the same range. This mix of spectra provides balanced light that faithfully reproduces underwater solar radiation and highlights the fluorescence of corals.

⚠️ Replace your T5 tubes every 9 to 12 months to maintain optimal light intensity and stable spectrum.
