Fish Fanatic
Basically I dont understand lighting the only thing I do get is the diffrence in size between the T5 T8 and T12,
Can someone explain like I'm five the kind of basics for what type of light (in a T8 size) I would need in my tank (4foot 246L) to promote good plant growth but not be excessivly bright itll scare my fish? Im not heavily planting the tank eather just want good healthy plants
I'm wanting to challenge my self with growning plants but I want it to be succesful. Im going to set up a pressurized Co2 setup but thats a later date. Funds are limited at the moment due my up coming wedding so Im buying bulbs first. I have two naff bulbs in my hood each bulb has one of the round starters that are in fluorescent strip lamps there T8 size but thats all I know. Ive read pages and pages of stuff on lights but I still dont get it can anyone point me in the direction of a good guide that will teach me to understand or take the time to explain like I'm a child what I should be looking for?? Thanks in advance
