    Mounting TMC Tile over 15L Pico?

    Hi guys, So currently I've got a TMC Aquaray Mini LED 400 over my TMC Microhabitat 15. Its producing great results, but on such a small aquarium the mount supplied with it is really making it look cluttered. I want to suspend the tile about 3 inches from the surface. First off: - Will...

    DIY Shop Fluorescent Tubes

    Hmmm interesting. Thanks JenCliBee! Might even get the names of the bulbs and the brand and see if I can get them ordered into my local DIY shop. I can get trade price! Post to Ireland from Lampspec would be extortionate regardless I imagine!

    Thanks mate. Think I'll go buy them during the week then! Don't know if the colour temp will bother me, might buy 1 bulb from the LFS if the colour looks wrong! :D

    Brilliant Clive. Thanks very much. Can you explain the difference in lighting when it comes to T5's T8's etc.? Will it matter if the bulbs I get aren't T5? Also, does it matter if I am running an actinic bulb to the plants ? Who would have known people steal bulbs :P :lol: Regards,

    Hi guys, just wondering if I should buy new bulbs for my luminaire from a pet shop, or are the DIY shops the same ? Are T5's readily available in DIY shops? Thanks

    Lighting blocked by perspex????

    I think it would probably diffuse it, water diffuses light and drops of condensation I imagine would further diffuse it. I'm no expert though.

    5W PL over 5.5L Pico ?

    The make of the tank is "Fish 'r' Fun" and its model its FRF-1919, not very good i know, but it was cheap and it fits in my room at Uni extremely comfortably. Do you think with this lighting i can grow glosso in this successfully? I have this tank about 4 months, and there's just java moss and...

    30L Aquael Shrimp Set Lighting

    I want to grow carpet plants and other plants that require high light, but the 11w light that comes with the tank isn't sufficient. would i be better getting another of the 11w "Decolight" supplied with the tank itself - or just scrapping that light and getting something like this ? -...
