Hi, I was wondering if anybody could help me?. I recently pulled my aquarium out of storage and set it up, but after a couple months the light failed. The old bulb simply said "Aqua-GLO" and was 6+ yrs old at least. I was looking to replace it with the same or similar bulb, but the old one had no specs on it. However, what it did do was really clarifiy the whites in the tank and brought out brilliant colors on the fish with its white/purple-ish cast like it had almost mild black light traits. I've tried several replacements including an "ultra sun" with a CRI rating of 98 from the pet store, a generic aquatic and plant light from Lowes with red and blue spectrums, and a regular cool white flourescent (CRI 60) from the hardware store. All of these seem to either cast a brown, yellow, or green tint to the tank. I did find a bulb called "Aqua-Glo" sold online, but there are no specs listed and I don't know if they make different models or if it is the same company. If anybody could share their thoughts with me on this it would be a big help. I'm really tired of buying lights! Thanks ~Jaymie
