Help A Light Newb :)

[ShoC]

Hi all,
I think its time I replace my lights should have done it 5 months ago
My plants are starting to suffer but need some help on what to get...

Linky

Link above is what I need T8 30inch @ 25w

but im after the best combination for viewing and plant benefit

is the best mix

Arcadia freshwater Lamp & Original Tropical

or any other sites that can get me different mixutre with better effect?
Or sites that provide the same for cheaper

any help appreciated as my plants are suffering especially my Crypt... starting to look all withered and spread out across the sand
any my BN thinks its fun to squish it even futher


EDIT : interesting I took them out to read what they were and when I put them back in now their nice and bright again!! maybe due to different rotation
