![]() If you want to accurately I mean really accurately measure use water dissipation, if not do the cross multiply of 250mls = 1 cup
Or I'm sure there is an online calculator I think I used 1/3rd of what what the max recommended dose I wouldn't expect you seeing any change in your nitrates for 5-8 weeks due to it needs to culture the bacteria! |

![]() So I really wanted a Giesemann 250w t5 led fixture but since they are $3300 bones I got thinking how can I make my old aqualight Pro 250w better. Well for starters I can pull out those stupid pc lights I mean do they even do anything ?
I added a led strip for a nice actinic look for sun rise and sun set . The real problem is I just have to many dark spots with just the two 250 w lights so why not add two 150w lights to my 48" aqualight so I did and it looks sweet. I bought a old 72 " aqualight pro for sale on canreef and spent the day puling the old light apart and re-fitting the new lights in. I put the two 150w on the ends and the 250w in the centre. The outer lights are 1200k and the inner are 1400k . I really like being able to have both the 1200k look and the 1400 k look. Its so cool . Some times in the evening 250 w at 1400 k can be a little bright and having the option of runing 150w at 1200k is really nice its much warmer and very natural looking ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 700w of awesomeness and a little bit of red neck innovation ![]() Last edited by WarDog; 02-07-2016 at 06:39 PM. |

![]() I don't think I will be running the 150w more than four hours a day. It will be neat to see if I get improved growth with the lower k lighting. Time will tell
