Re: lime overdose!!!!!!!!!!!????

We all make mistakes, I have done the same thing also.

However 8oz to 5gal of water is way too much. Just do 1 tsp per gal of water. If you need more you can do 2 tsp per gal.

Good luck.

It's not about watts, it's about PARS. T-5s put out more PAR than a PC.

However for that small of a tank either should work fine.
