Deck,
50cm should be ok for PL/FL.
May I know what is your tank dimensions? 5'X 1.5'X 1.5'?
What ballast are you intending to get?
I would reccomend that you consider also MH lights. The pricing will not be much of a difference. For MH, it will save you a little as you don't need to follow the 3W/G rule. The intensity is much higher thus reducing the wattage demand.
One thing I don't like abt the lights is the glare. Other than that I'm quite satified with the results.
Sherwin.... long time no see lah.... and you are faster got a new tank leow....[]
very nice set up and the MH....
I love to do the MH but to ex leow lah... got to spend about $400 right including bulbs.....
my tank L160cm x B52cm x H58cm
Yes I am using the Osram PL36watt and Osram E-balast... can get free lor.... if 8nos of Pl not enough to penetrated.... might just need to top up more light (add another 4 more 36 PL) which total to 360watt
now only need the casing (any lobang) and the reflector
appericate your help....
Deck,
Have a chat with Chan lah..... maybe he can advise.
You'l probably have to think about the cooling too. Mind you although it's eballast, it will still be hot.
hm................ chan sell the empty casing??
sherwin.. when are you have Tank cum MH house warming.... :lol
how long does a tank needs to settle down to see the plant growth....
