Aqua One MG Series
   

The MG series of Metal Halide light units are the personification of aquarium style. The elegant design will enhance any aquarium set up.

The combination of metal halide and blue fluorescent PL tubes as standard provide the complete light spectrum, essential for the reproduction of Zoochlorellae in coral cells. Changing the colour temperature lamps can transform the Light output to the ideal combination for freshwater plants. The higher intensity lights spectrum produced is far more effective in deeper aquariums than fluorescent tubes alone (up to several times more effective) where the inhabitants rely upon bright light to survive.

When suspended high above the aquarium the 'shadow play' created by rippling surface water creates a far more pleasing effect than the 'flat' light created by conventional lighting alone.

By combining a high light intensity metal halide bulb with a range of colour spectrum that is associated with fluorescent bulbs, the Aqua One combination system will meet the needs of the most demanding coral or plant.

Aqua One 250 Metal Halide MG-D
 

The MG-D series of Metal Halide lighting unit sticks to the same elegant design as the MG but are much more powerful units. Ideal for the deeper aquarium where inhabitants rely upon bright light to survive. The great advantage with the MG-D is that it is supplied with an external ballast with build in analogue timer. The timer is easy to adjust as it is not attached to the light unit. Heat production is also reduced as the ballast isn't mounted inside the light unit. The light unit is lighter making it easier to suspend.

The MG-D produces the correct spectrum of light for the essential reproduction of zooanthellae inside coral cells. When suspended high above the aquarium as with the MG you get the "shadow play" effeect created by rippling surface water.
