Here is my Derasa under T5s that is about 20" under water:
 He has about tripled in size over a year and a half.

   These 2 were in my 20 tall I had a total of 4 at one point with only t-5's. I have a 65 now so I moved them all, but everything did awesome in the 20.

I keep a crocea in a 38 gallon under 295 watts of T5 lighting. I have it perched 4" beneath the waterline. It was part of a downgrade from a 75 gallon lit by 2x250 watt hqi. It has lost a slight bit of color but still looks quite good.

I'll have to get decent pictures later but I have a small, 2" or so Maxima under 5x54W T5 (individual reflectors). Also there is a Crocea under it now, not too sure on it though.

Keeping a T. crocea in a 75 with 216 watts, T5. It's located about mid-depth ~10 inches. Doing great.
I'm keeping a T. derasa in another tank, same size, same lights, not fairing well, but it's new and when I recieved it the water it was in was freezing, so I'm thinking it was something else causing the clam problems. Some say you can't keep light-intensive items under T5's unless you have individual reflectors, but I disagree. |
