Good evening,
Can anyone give me some advice for a confused person. It has been suggested that I might buy a new T5 lighting sytem for my new juwel as the old system was knackered ( think someone must have run over it with a tank when they weren't looking....).
I bought the tank the other day and am starting fresh with no knowledge of growing plants. I have bred angels for years but that got pretty boring.
I have been given some help and useful books and to begin with will have to try and grow very sturdy plants that can survive without extra CO2 due to the finances.
Below is the unit advertised on the Juwel website. It cost £75 without the bulbs. I have already sussed out that I can get cheaper bulbs from Lampspecs but can't find any 54 watt ones on there - am I looking in the wrong place?
High-Lite Light Unit 120cm 2x 54 watt
NEW GENERATION OF LIGHT UNIT ***
Suitable for Rio 240, Rio 300, Vision 260, Panorama 200.
Will this system surfice or do you think I should go for something else.
