Hi everyone!
I'm setting up my light bulb system for my 20 gallon and I replaced the T8 neon bulb with CFLs, which I haven't purchased yet. Anyways, I went to the hardware store, and the only CFL bulbs with K rates were of low wattage, such as 9 or 11 watt. I'm looking for higher wattage bulbs. I found 32, 40 and 55 watt bulbs. I'm aiming for two 32, this is going to be a high light planted tank. But these bulbs had no K rates !! What do I do? The light was bright and white. Are they okay for my tank? I'm confused, just when I thought I found something cheap !!! Help!
Thanks!
