Arcadia T5 Reflectors

When a fluorescent tube is ignited, light is given off evenly in every direction, much of which is directed upwards into the lid of the aquarium.

If a reflector is mounted behind the tube, this stray light is not wasted, but redirected back to where it is required – the aquarium, so that the efficiency of the tube is maximised.

  • Reflector can be angled to direct the light into the aquarium or terrarium
  • Maximises the light in your tank
  • Made from a sturdy aluminium design
  • Resistant to salt water corrosion
  • light clips included

Triton / Tri-plus Light

This was the first specifically developed aquarium lighting tube. The Triton light spectrum is based on the light spectrum requirements of corals and plants and also takes into account the light absorption of water. The result is a lamp that concentrates all of its power output in the areas of the spectrum, which penetrate water and is utilized by plants/corals. This is unique approach compared to daylight (6500K-colour temperature) imitation lamps, which waste power in unnecessary areas of the spectrum.

Growing medium to high light requirement freshwater aquatic plants, Marine Macro algae's, Soft and hard corals

It also creates an ideal reef highlight effect for marine aquariums which contain just fish

Arcadia Lights

Arcadia Original Tropical  is designed specifically to bring out the red and blue peaks of natural daylight that are necessary for photosynthesis. (Photosynthesis is the process of putting together - by means of light - two simple substances: carbon dioxide and water, to form carbohydrates, the basic food of all living organisms, and to release oxygen as a by-product).

 

Arcadia Freshwater , has been specially formulated to combine a uniquely created colour temperature of 7,500K (Kelvin), peaking in the green part of the spectrum, with a very high light output. It also provides superb colour rendition, enhancing all the beautiful natural colours to be found within a typical freshwater aquarium and creating an attractive viewing environment for the fishkeeper. Being a true tri-phosphor lamp, the quality of light is excellent and provides long and stable life characteristics.
