Lighting for axies

[waggy1987]

Hi all

Just wondering what lighting you prefer to use for your axies tank? Would blue LED lights be ok?
Thanks

I have a marine land hood which has white leds and blue leds. The axies don't mind the blue leds at all but when I turn on the white leds they hide all day. Blue leds won't have much effect unless your room is dimly lit or the leds are very bright. But it does look stunning

i have blue strip light and a yellow/white one on my hood i leave mine on for a max of 3hours a day and they dont mind it at all! and it gives my live plants in the tank a chance to thrive :happy:
