BIOCUBE LIGHTING

[JDSmith]

The actinic bulbs for my 29 gal. biocube have gone out. My canopy holds:

1-36 watt True Actinic 03 Blue, straight pin
1-36 watt 10,000 Daylight, straight pin
3-.75 watt Lunar Blue-Moon-Glow LED

My question is whether or not, I can increase the light output in my canopy without modifying the equipment? Are there higher watt bulbs that will fit my canopy?

My tank has been set up for nine months now. Is this too soon for the actinics to go out?

Any suggestions or advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

J.D.

IME PC's have a ~9 month life so it could be time.

The lamps have to be matched to the ballast so simply put you're stuck without modifying the hood and adding in lamps.
