Do! Aqua Mini M lighting?

[Lee Sweeting]

Hi! I'm considering starting a low tech nano tank (about 20l), and was wondering if anyone could suggest a suitable lighting rig?

Thanks,

Lee.

It's not really a low tech if you've got that much light mate...

Mines got no co2, but a lot of agitation on surface from lily pipe.

It does okay, with a hint of hair but not much considering.

Fair enough! I would still tread carefully though. It's a good excuse to get lots of shrimp.

TMC aquaHabitats MIcroLED 200 Light | Charterhouse Aquatics This is the one I use over my 20 litre. It's a great light and a really low wattage too. Can grow most plants with it, including carpets.

Also, I wouldn't have to stick with the original 27w FPL bulb.

Excuse leaf litter, but the shrimps find it Devine

I suppose, it looks like I've lost this battle lads, until next time....

P.S. Nice tank Nathaniel, is this the one going up for sale?

Ha ha! I know what you mean about high light. But the bulb is slightly old. So may have Impact on algae growth. I purposely didn't get a new bulb for that reason. 27w is a lot over about 20 litres lol.

And yes mate It is at some point, but Lee will have first dibs

Cheers,

Expensive to replace too I'll bet! I'm in no position to buy a tank anyway. 3 freshwaters and 1 one saltwater reef is enough for me! And money may be an issue too, unless you would accept an offer of £10!
