I'll help with editing if you need. The joys of internet.... collaboration :)
Wish I could make it! The raffle is last on my mind, I think the rest of it must be a HUGE thing to see and experience!! Good luck guys and enjoy....
I would keep one 10'000K running and only change one 10'000K for a 6'500K...
Well as a start, USB 2 limits your current drain to 100mA, some computers limit it to 500mA. So max you will get 500mA from 5V (up to 5.5V), that...
From another post --> Reason for selling : emptying my tank with large fish to make way for my fast growing discus.
His location is Pet Stop, the name of one of the sponsors and one of the best petshops in my opinion, I like the web address, Home ... if that is...
I have a plastic canopy for the same size tank (Will DIY a better one after my big move), and that has about a 25mm overhang, so 5mm should be...
Yip new tipe aka electronic ballast. Same as you get in the base of CFL's. I wouldn't recommend using 2 in series for an application where the...
mattie have you done this before or just from what you have read? I couldn't get this to work on magnetic ballasts (the old type), but with...
Will do so, will try it this weekend, otherwise I'll get 3 or 4 from the campus electronic store tomorrow and try a small array on my 2ft and see...

Never though of looking at Senwes for Daylight CFL's, will have a look, currently all of my plants are in my 60L anticipating the Groot Trek Reversal
Just keep your sliders clean, and you won't get that much of an increase when you jump from Daylight CFL's to T5's!! Where did you buy the...
@mr_meen yes you get higher, look at the H7 lights on new cars, those easily go up to 15000K and beyond, thats why they look more blue than white...
When TheGrissom refers to normal Osram lights, he still means 6500K or higher it seems from other posts. Cool White (4000K) will do as well, but...
Courtney99 what is the mcd value of those LED's? I presume you are sourcing your LED's from the campus electronics store or similiar? They should...
Cool White is 4000K and that is what I use on my 2ft, as getting 6500K in Potch is really difficult... If you can get some 6500K tubes, it would...
For smaller tanks I like to stick to T5 tubes in the 8-13W range and add a couple of them. Only reason for that being I can DIY the electronic...
Well, when I say not much I compare it to a canister filled with Matrix, bio-balls or lots of sponge. For a small tank like that it should be...
