Re: On hindsight-should have/ have not done this when starting tank
I dont think that the current high powered LEDs will lose out to the MH lights in terms of performance actually. But MH light have a very good history so some people still prefer them. It is good to use MH if you have a chiller though. Without, you are going to spend more money cooling the tank down.
By the way one more thing on hindsight.
Spend more time doing up the hoses of the filter properly or regret later as it will be very difficult to do maintenance.
I am going to have to suffer that later in nov when i have some time as my hoses are all over and it really is unsightly. Check out Urban Aquarias cabinet. Superbly done.
And to make sure you do your hoses properly: buy plenty of double taps. I trust eheim ones the best. This allows ease of detachment for each part of your filter, co2 reactor and stuff. That saves A LOT of trouble later on.
Holy is the Lord, God Almighty ! The Earth is filled with His Glory !
