Not Happy With Juwel T5 Bulbs

[donna 123]

well i replaced my faulty T8 light bar with the new T5 juwel one,
I got a day light and a colour light, put the day at the back not sure if this is right but being used to arcadia bulbs when i switched the lights on it looks like a green tinge everywhere , i have another tank with juwel T5 but it has natural bulb at back and day bulb infront, i thought the colour would enhance the look but it dont ,
i so hope arcadia bring out T5 that fit the juwel light housing very soon.

They are listed as J5 plant pros I find they give a warm pinkishwhite light there very pink when you first start them once they burn in they whiten up!

Thanks
