Water Test
I did a water test and this is interesting, PH went up from 7.5 to 8.0
PH 8.0
Ammonia 1.0
Nitrite 0.0
Nitrate 0.0
Additionally, I found a website that replaces the WPG rule for updated higher intensity lights.
The new calculations are based on lumens/Sq inch. (depth is assumed under 24")
It calculated that a 10 gallon tank with CFL's requires the following:
Compact Fluorescent 56WVeryHigh 43WHigh 28WModerate 14WLow
