    My suggestion would be visit every LFS in your area and see what they are using
    I used T8 plant tubes (except when I bought only once daylight tubes) I replaced them annually.

    Thanks Keith, I went to Maidenhead Aquatics near to me yesterdayand splashed out on a fluval aquasky led light bar. Controlled through an app on my phone. Will be setting it up today and will let you know how it is.

    Only one question can it be set up manually that would be my only concern?

    Set the Aquasky up yesterday, very simple to set and working great. Very impressed. I upgraded on the app and it stops the original app working, so just go into pro settings and works a treat.
