The fish look spectacular!
I purchased this fluorescent fixture and the 18” T8 plant bulb. Because of the bulb spectrum It provides a very soft light with a reddish tint. The light is on 12 hours every day.
I have put in the full spectrum bulb that come with the fixture in order to compare and find that the colors of the guppies, Corydoras catfish, and the plants flatten and look very pretty. However, the plant bulb makes the colors of the fish look spectacular. Guppies like softer light and shade. As a result of using the Aqueon fixture the babies fry can hide nicely and eat ravenously without getting bothered by adults and toddlers. The adults and toddlers are very active.
The only thing that I was surprised about was the reddish tint of the plant bulb so the natural gravel looks pinkish but that fish look spectacular.
No, I do not recommend this product.

How bright is this light supposed to be? I can barely tell that it’s on and I’m trying to figure out where the issue is.
- Fluorescent bulbs need to be replaced from time to time. If you are not getting the desired effects from this style bulb, we would recommend an LED fixture.

I'm wondering what the lumens of this bulb are?
- Hi there! We actually don't measure lumens.
