Seament Shoes Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 I found this lighting system made by JBJ lighting. The cheapest I have found it for is $95 with the legs, seems a tad pricey for only a total of 36 watts. I have a 2.5 that I was thinking of turning into a nano and this light seems perfect for it. www.jbjlighting.com/sys_formosa.html Link to comment
aqua_aaron Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 naw, make a DIY hood with 3 or 4 13 watt PC and/or curly Q's. i think that'll be much cheaper. HTH aqua_aaron Link to comment

Seament Shoes Posted February 19, 2004 Author Share Posted February 19, 2004 Well, after reading up a little more on JBJ light it looks like a DIY project. I'm surpised that for the price JBJ wants for their light fixtures that they should last a few years with no fuss, but from everything I've read they seem to crap out right after the warrenty expires.

digz Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 for 20 bucks, you can get 36 watts over that wee tank, just get 2 curlies (the 65k ones) from Home Depot, wire up 2 closet light fixtures on a 6 ft extension cord and throw them in a hood. I threw in, for about 16 bucks, a 13 watt actinic for looks. so about 36 bucks for 49 watts of light on a 2.5. 65k and actinic = uber. Link to comment
