Avy Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Yo! Have a nano(think it's pretty small) as the one stated. Planning to keep softies and LPS. Currently using one actinic and normal light FL,even Mushrooms are dieing!(sob sob). So i'm thinking of upgrading to 2xT5 Dymax 20w(1x10000k and 1x6500k) + T5 Actinic. Think that is sufficient? Or should i go for 2x55wPL? Help pls.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member danano Posted November 4, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted November 4, 2004 Try T5 HO lights (2x 24W). I believe a few of our sponsors carry them. Alternatively, for LPS and softies, PL should work fine as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
