Hi everyone,
After talking to a few of you here, I have decided to upgrade my lighting. I have a 92 gallon corner tank, currently with only 96w PC (1). I'm having to have a hood built because of the odd shape of the tank. Then we'll add 250 w MH 10,000k and my current 96w PC to the hood. (Using my current PC will save me about 110.00!) I'm spending a good bit of cash on this, but it's a custom job (woodworking) and I know it will look good, as I have seen this guy's work. Another thing, I'm glad the PC didn't turn out to be a total waste, I only bought it about 6-8 weeks ago.
Now question time: :confused: As the fixture is going to be designed to sit on the aquarium, how do I acclimate my current softies to the new light? Just move them to the bottom? Currently they range from 6-12 inches off the bottom of this 22-23 inch deep tank.
Oh! the ballast will have an integrated timer! yippee! Sorry, I'm just so excited.
thanks, Lee:D
