Travis Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I just discovered that you can use an LED UV Black Light to see new coral growth before its visible with the main tank lights, my case T5HO. Spot's Light UV Blacklight Flashlight, Black 12 LED, Ultraviolet Pet Urine Stain Detector Finds Dog and Cat Pee on Carpets, Rugs, any Floor or Wall https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QXUVYMY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_.ICqxbP162KS6 Link to comment
Clown79 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Cool. I have standard glo blue leds in my tank that I use as moon lights, got them at petsmart, they are used for freshwater tanks to give the fish a "glo" and its so cool at night. Link to comment
Hammerstone Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 That looks so cool. No criminals can hide in your tank either lol. Cool. I have standard glo blue leds in my tank that I use as moon lights, got them at petsmart, they are used for freshwater tanks to give the fish a "glo" and its so cool at night. I'll have to get some of those. My moon lights aren't the greatest at picking up the flourescent properties of my corals! Link to comment
Clown79 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 The darker the blue the better fluorescent colouring. Link to comment
dandelion Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I noticed only green color fluoresces under black light. Other colors don't. Link to comment
