Using house hold/industrial lighting vs aquarium fixtures.

[Dennis Wong]

I took some comparison pics of the aquarium today using some spare room lights lying around so I thought it will be interesting for folks to see.
There is some uneven lighting with the desk lamp and Hygger as they are a bit too small to light the whole tank evenly.
What I thought was interesting was that the photographs with better visual color appear sharper, but all the photographs are actually the exact same sharpness.

Great images Dennis, I appreciate these posts and they have guided me well when ordering lights.

OK, nice experimentation and examples. Now please go back to your normal lighting (the last photo I think) so we can continue being hypnotized by your aquariums.
