Default Best xback lighting

Hi guys. I would like to ask your opinion on which is the best lighting for crossback arowanas? Can I use tanning lights? Thank you.

IMHO, led can give your Xb a shiny look.

I'm just using a simple led based light, don't think it's t5.

You try going to the lfs, compare the tanks lighted by led and normal fluorescent. The fishes under led looks shinier.

I think to each individual preference,
some may like gold Led, some may like tanning light
But I still prefer normal white Led
