    Okay, but if they see farther into IR than they do into UV, wouldn't a blue lamp leaning farther towards UV be less visible than the IR red lamp, which is much more likely within their visible spectrum? I am not sure I entirely understand it, or maybe misread what their visibility spectrum was, granted I am also not an expert or a biologist haha! I have ordered a CHE and a variety of wattages in order to see what fits my setup best, I look forward to figuring out what works best!
