Need a light bulb

[Sunshine]

I just bought lights for my 6 bulb fixture about 4 months ago. One blew already. It says on there Actinic White. What kind should I buy ? I looked on different websites, too many to choose from. When I got these, I just told the guy at the store to order what he thought would be best. So, I have no idea what to look for. Thanks ..

Current 420nm Actinic is what I use, but it's nothing special.

A UV Actinic White bulb is a daylight 12000k bulb.If you like the look of your tank now then replace it with the same thing.

Other good choices for daylight bulbs are the ATI Aquablue Special 12k and UV Aquasun 10k bulbs.You want it a little more blue then try a 14k bulb instead.
