I've found that the bright blue 18,000K Hagen PowerGlo bulb shows off fish
colors accurately and vividly. Concerning algae promotion, the colour or
intensity of light will not really be a factor...only if you have a high
wattage per gallon without proper fertilization and sufficient C02.

For my 80 gallon tank I have 2 trocal lights and a triton. The triton is
positioned at the front to highlight the fish colours. However, I
understand
it's not great in that it encourages algae. I don't want 3 'plant' lights
as the tank will look too yellow. Can anyone recommend an alternative
front
light which is strong enough to overcome the yellow effect of the other 2
lights, will highlight the fish colours and will not encourage algae too
much?

Thanks in advance.
