Dear all!
I just stumbled upon this:
Which, as you may know is a simplification of Hoppy's chart:
Anyhow, I just realised I may actually be in the "too high" light bit of the chart.
I have the following:
Juwel rio 125 which is 50cm high, so that would be about 20inches
I have on top of that 4 T5HO bulbs (4* 28W = 112W)
Would you say that is too much light? Should I just use 2 bulbs instead of 4?
I'm a bit lost with all that now, always thought that more Watts per Gallons (Liters) was better... but this made me wonder...
