I've just recently installed a whooping 96W over my 16 gallon tank! I was hoping that with intense CO2 and EI fertilisation, the plants will be pearling like mad but to my dissapointment I don't see any pearling besides CO2 bubbles from my diffuser. Now I'm trying another attempt to grow healthy plants and hence I've rescaped my whole tank and upgrade my lighting. This is just a few picture of the tank before and after and as you can see the 96w and 48w doesn't seemed to make much difference to my eye. I've also noticed that the 96w unit came with a stand that is 1 inch higher than the 48w unit. Maybe that's why the light looks a little diffused? Anyway, I would appreciate any comment on this. Cheers
