In an effort to avoid doing my PGCE assignments I went ahead on a whim and built this;
I'm just thinking about lighting and have a couple of questions. The tank is 38cm x 30 x 25. I'm planning low tech dense planting (Iwagumi style).
Questions are;
What lighting do I need for reasonable growth?
What's the cheapest way of going about getting it? I'd prefer off the shelf but I can solder pretty well if DIY is drastically cheaper.
I also have a CO2 system running on my main tank which I may split to feed this tank too, so it would be nice to have lighting that would suit that (or be easily upgradable).
