Coralife Bulbs
Coralife Bulbs are among the highest quality bulbs which are second to none and competitively priced to boot.

Coralife manufactures lighting bulbs in the Metal Halides, Actinic, Compact, and Flourescent variety. Customers find them incredibly effective.
Coralife Metal Halide Bulbs of the metal halide variety use high intensity discharge (HID) technology lighting systems which are well liked by aquarists. Metal halide bulbs produce the most concentrated and intense light of any type of artificial lighting.They are well suited for deep freshwater planted aquariums and saltwater reef aquariums containing light-loving corals such as small polyped stony and large polyped stony corals and invertebrates including Tridacna clams and others. A spectacular desirable effect of metal halide lighting in your aquarium is the “glitter effect,” which replicates the effect of surface waves reflecting on a reef in a natural environment.
Coralife Actinic Bulbs provide their spectrum in the range required for the the Photosynthetic process and health of Marine corals and Invertebrates and to a lesser extent freshwater plants. Actinic bulbs should not be used alone, but in conjunction with other full spectrum bulbs. Actinic bulbs are heavy in the blue light and can give everything a bluish tint
Coralife Flourescent Bulbs are some of the most widely used variety in aquarium lighting. They come in all lengths and wattage. They also can be made to any color spectrum from the Red to the Blue-White. These bulbs can be used on Freshwater plant tanks to Salt water Mini-Reef set ups. The fixtures for these bulbs are as diverse as the bulbs . There is the simple one bulb fixture, the multiple bulb type, where you can mix and match different color bulbs for that custom look. You can also purchase the components at any hardware store and design your own fixture.
