    Hi All,

    I am currently using an Ocean-Free 2 1/2" dual twin-tube Flourescent lamp with each twin tube rated 36W for my tank. I noticed that through bright but there are some blind spot, that is, some plants in some corners within the tank are not getting enough light hence not growing as fast as those near the light source. My tank size is 30"(W)x18"(H)x15"(D)

    Any suggestion how I could resolve this without having to replace the light. If not, any recommended good lighting in LFS that will cover the entire tank effectively?

    One is to avoid planting high-light plants in the darker corners. Make sure that the shorter high-light plants are in the bright areas. Tall plants can be planted in the darker areas and they will grow up and towards the lights.

    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
