![]() Picked up my new lights from the post office today. Set them up above the tank and wow what a difference from PC's(obviously). Heres a couple pics with the diff lights on the tank. Same camera setting for both. Its hard to get a good pic of the difference...
PC's (2 x 28w) ![]() MH (1 x 175w with a 14k bulb) ![]() I was thinking of using a 20k bulb and have it on the way, but the 14k is really blue also. Ill have to test them both out. Have to build the canopy and equip with fans to keep the heat down now. |

![]() Fans and adapter are from Princess Auto. Cut the ends of the fans for positive and negative. Cut the end of the adapter. Stripped all the wires. Twisted them all together and heat shrunk them. Heres pictures of what the adapter and fans have written on them.....
![]() ![]() Not the clearest pics but hopefully you can get the jist of the info. |
