Scoot Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 Hey, i have a 6 gallon eclipse tank, its been set up for 2 years and ive been playing with the idea of getting a brighter bulb for it, i currently use a power-glo tube, 8 watts, its perfect for mushrooms and i have some brown button polyps that are doing good, but i feel like adding more cause after a while mushrooms get boring. Can anyone send me a link of anything that i can add to it to help, the bulb i use is 12 inches long which is very small and not too many different fluorescent tuves are made that small. so any help would be nice.

MrAnderson Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I have an eclipse and couldn't find anything for the stock hood, so I had to retrofit. Started off with a LOA 6700K fixture (Home Depot, $30). Eventually got a Coralife 96W powerquad with Sunpaq 50/50. Link to comment
pipeorgel Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 hellolights.com has a retrofit that would work with an eclipse. My eclipse got waaaaayyyy too hot, so instead of retrofitting I switched to a nanocube 6 *shrugs* Link to comment
