    Planted tank no co2. I have about 200lbs of Eco complete with about 60 lbs of Aztec brown gravel for a more natural riverbed look and to save a little money on Eco complete. I just had to cut my lights back to about 5 hrs due to algae issues I Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    They do look like shop lights. Powder coated white with reflectors for each bulb. You could easily build feed to sit on top of the tank. Mine hang from the top of my canopy about 8" from the top of the tank Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
