Replacement Light For Elite 95

[Jallen]

I have an Elite 95:

But I don't like how yellow the light is. It came with the tank and attaches to the hood. I haven't tried removing it or anything.
I've seen replacement sun-glo tubes, but I want a tube which is more blue than yellow as I find when walking through the LFS the lights they use are much more white / blue and make the fishes colours come out much better.
The only other tube in the range seems to be aqua-glo, but I've read that's dimmer than sun-glo...
What do I do?

Measure the length of your light tube, it will just unclip (i think).
Then get a different light, I would go for a white one, you will get bored with blue.
and you could always go for some blue LED's later on if you decide you want both.

I'd highly recommend the life-glo. It's a natural white light (6700k) and is brighter than the others in that range. I originally had a sun-glo and got fed up with the murky yellow colour and then tried an aqua-glo and a power-glo before coming across the life-glo. The best of those by far.

Dont know how to remove the light?


The 2 pieces of plastic covering the end of the tube, both unscrew and both will reveal the end of the light tube.
Once un screwed you can twist and remove the light tube and replace with new tube.

Ok thanks guys, I'm looking around for a tube now. I'm having some trouble finding a life-glo tube, but I assume any T8 tube which is 60cm long will fit fine and be water resistant like my current one, since it's a sealed unit.

Thanks for the help.
