Giesemann Aquaristic

Water plants and corals from upper reef zones have adapted to the full sunlight spectrum. In their natural biosphere water plants almost exclusively occur in clear water suffused with light in shallow depths (max. 2 - 3m). Also, many corals, nurtured in aquariums, originate from shallow water biospheres, where the complete spectrum of sunlight is present. Down to a depth of about 6m all visible wavelengths of light penetrate water to a very similar extent. This is why it is important to provide these plants and corals with a light that mimics natural sunlight as closely as possible. POWERCHROME T-5 tropic is one of a very few fluorescent tubes that is designed to be a full spectrum lamp. The light spectrum shows that each individual color of the fluorescent tube possesses the entire spectrum from blue to red. POWERCHROME tropic lamps represent the colors of the aquarium in a very natural way. Many scientific research institutes and public aquariums rely on POWERCHROME T-5 lamps. This provides overwhelming evidence for the outstanding quality of our fluorescent tubes.Features & Benefits Correspond to the natural light conditions underwater Highlight the colors of fish and corals Sun-identical spectrum of about 6500 Kelvin Absolutely natural colors with a color representation index of 1A (very good)

GIESEMANN for years has made many attempts to identify a light spectrum, which promotes the growth of aquatic plants as much as possible, and inhibits the growth of algae. Here we detected, that both emergent and submerged (growth outside/inside of the water) plants prefer a spectrum with a low to moderate amount of blue, medium amount of yellow/green, and a significantly increased amount of red. This has been now confirmed by various researchers. As a result of this research, we present the GIESEMANN T-5 / Super Flora, whose spectrum is exactly following this knowledge. These fluorescent lamps enables plant growth even of more demanding plant species, such as Tiger Lotus, and also reinforce the red and blue colors of your fish in the freshwater aquarium.We recommend the GIESEMANN T-5 / tropic to be used in conjunction with the GIESEMANN T-5 / super flora for Freshwater and planted aquariums.Features & Benefits Corresponds to the spectral composition of the light under water Inhibits algae growth by specially designed light spectrum Reinforcement of red and blue colors of fish and plants Designed for optimal plant growth Activates chlorophyll synthesis of aquarium plants Made in Germany
