The Zoo Med Reef Sun 50/50 Mini Compact Fluorescent Lamp is designed to give your reef and marine aquarium the balanced light it needs in a compact, easy‑to‑use bulb.

Balanced spectrum for reef health

• 50/50 mix: Combines 6500K trichromatic daylight phosphor with Actinic 420 phosphor in a single lamp.
• Daylight output: Supports photosynthetic organisms and natural viewing of fish and invertebrates.
• Actinic 420: Enhances fluorescence in corals, anemones, and live rock for richer, deeper colors.

Ideal for compact and nano setups

• Mini 5 in size: Perfect for nano reefs, small marine tanks, and tight canopies.
• Subdued lighting effect: Creates a softer, ocean‑inspired look instead of harsh, glaring light.
• Great for shallow tanks: Provides effective illumination without overpowering smaller aquariums.

Easy to use, energy efficient

• Self‑ballasted design: No external ballast required—screws into a compatible compact fluorescent socket.
• Energy‑saving CFL: Uses less power than many traditional reef bulbs while delivering strong output.
• Low heat compared to some fixtures: Helps reduce excess heat over the tank when used appropriately.

Best for

• Marine reef aquariums with corals and live rock
• Nano and desktop reef tanks needing a compact light source
• Aquarists who prefer a softer, blue‑white reef look
