Question

Answer
Hi Jose;

I just use a good fluorescent tube from the local fish store that says it's good for bringing out the natural colors of my fish. Avoid the less expensive "shop light" bulbs. They don't have the proper spectrum and tend to wash out the colors. Here is a link to a good article about aquarium lighting to help you know what to look for on the labels when shopping;
