Aquarium Advice Activist
i need to replace my turtle light for a new light fixture that will help my freshwater fish aquarium.
here are my newbie questions:
what is the difference between a T-5 and a PC? and what are these?
Why do you have two different bulbs? at different wattages?
i went to the Dr. Foster and Smith website, but i'm hesitant because there isn't anyone looking over my shoulder...
i'm trying to spend no more than $150 on a lighting fixture for my tank.
"the guy at the fish store" told me he didn't like to use flourescents.
any reason?
he encouraged me to get a "canopy" type thingy for $90. but i wanted to ask all of you before i did anything...
also, i have questions regarding how long they should be on... blah blah...
if anyone reading this has any suggestions on lighting my 24 inch tank please let me know!
keep in mind i don't know anything, and want whts best for my budget.
please help
thanks
