before i moved & lost most everything in my 52, i had (4) of each of the
Red Green & Orange ones


however, they are not as nice if you don't have an actinic bulb or a black light

A traditional white aquarium light will work for daytime viewing. Another excellent option is an actinic light, which will give the fish an exciting and uniquely fluorescent look, particularly in low lighting environments. In cases where the room is completely dark, a black light will create the appearance that the fish are glowing in the dark. This is a truly stunning and beautiful way to display your GloFish® fluorescent fish at night! But please remember that the black light will only be helpful in a completely dark room.

Due to State legislation, this fish may not be shipped to California.
