Greenwater

I'm just planning my Discus tank. I was thinking of adding a black light bulb instead of painting the inside of the canopy with Glow in the dark paint. The black light should emulate moonlight. . . .There will be a timer for the normal white CFL's but the black light will always be on. Maybe you can try this too?

Hi Tankmaster,
That's an idea Would I be able to get the blacklight at any hardware store?

I am not sure where you can get it but check online or on ebay or bid or buy.

Cool, I'll look around and see what I can find.
Another option I've been thinking of is getting a green light, but I'm not sure how this will affect the water and algae.

 

Hey! Don't they sell blue tornado bulbs at any supermarket?



Maybe you can get the low wattage one so it's not so bright. Did your moms BF buy you your timer yet? I saw one at builders warehouse for R30

I've seen those blue lights at Builders, I'll go have a look again to make sure what they are.

Yeah, I've got 2 timers now... each light on for 7 hours with a 2 hour break.
