Kennetht Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I have 4 55W PCs, a 36W PC, and a 28W PC over my 20L. Currently I have a "ghetto" setup with teh lights being held over the tank by boards attached to the stand. I am need to redo the lights, as I can't work over the tank for them being in the way. How far do the lights need to be off the top of the water? I have 2 4" fans that I can install to cool. Also, should I make it to where the lights stay put when I open the top or not? Thanks in advance for all of the help.
wingsfan Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Where do you put all those bulbs at over a 20l and why so much light over a tank that is only 12 inches deep minus any substrate you have in there?
Kennetht Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 I have them side by side, and the 28W and 36W are butting heads. It's 284W when all of them are on, and some people are using two 150W MHs...so what's the difference?
bradjoyce Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 im jealous i only have 220 watt pc on my 72 bow
Flagstone13 Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 Do you have a picture of this setup? I would like to see how you got so many light over a 20L
Kennetht Posted February 28, 2004 Author Posted February 28, 2004 I'm re-making my hood, but i'll post pics to this thread when it's finished.
Kennetht Posted March 6, 2004 Author Posted March 6, 2004 The hood is made, and the lights are installed. I'll try and get a pic for you all today or tomorrow. The hood sits on the inside lip of the tank. When I do post the pic, please pardon the wire tie holders
