Today I added a new discus to my 'discus tank' and straight away the little blue one came out from hiding. :). All the discus were in a line (above each other). Some would twitch at one another. This was the yellow one and the new one. Then big blue jumped in and started pecking the little blue...

I have added some more floursecent tubes. Just thought I would show use all. There is currently 44 Watts on my 10 gal. The light tubes are all different and have a good effect especially if I can figure out how to get the timers to work because one tube is like sunrise, the other is morning...

I am adding lighting to my s/w tank. I just want to know what the effect would be if the floursecent light tube was switch on (8 hours a day) and was touching a glass hood that covers the tank so no water is lost due to evaporation. Images below..
