Aquarium Advice FINatic
OK....uurrggg
what to go with...unfortantely I have a custom hood and would like to go with lights that take up the least amount of space. I personally dont like the open tank look and like the hood but it maybe too small and I may have to mod it to alow more room.
I know I dont want MH....too hot and I dont feel I need to go with something that intense...not to meantion too darn expensive for just one
My question is should I go with small PC like 24 " and have the same amount of both sides? or go with the longer 96 watt ones (which i think are 48 " long) but will the bulbs have a problem staying in the socket? or will I have to tie or clip them?
VHO is the other option but I will have to go with 4 tubes ..how close can you mount the VHO tubes? Is it best to have dual ballast?
suggestions anyone?
