www.innovativelights.com used to sell Tru-Vue i'm not sure if they still do or not

I use IO basicly because it is the only brand availible locally but i do agree that it is a bit low in ca. and alk. but for a softy tank its really not an issue

That is really cool but i'll bet even with a magfloat its still a real chore to keep it clean, i agree though it would be alot cooler connecting a pair of 200+ gallon tanks

i had one growing in my 5.5g but i broke it during my last water change

I have a 175w mh with a 10,000 ushio bulb and 2x32w actinic pc in a home made canopy over my 29g tank and i really like it but i getting ready to swap out the 32w for 2x65w actinics

yes you can screw this to a canopy, in fact you have to attach it to something. as far as plug and play goes you have to do some basic wiring but other that that its ready to go. what size tank are you planing on using this on and how many are planning on using?

i forgot one, my diy canopy and base

since i've been hanging out here awhile i think maybe i should post a couple pics of my tank so here it is AGA 5.5g 4x13w pc, 2-50/50 and 2-actinic on seperate timers AC200 for filter floss and carbon/phosban AC mini ph running a diy spraybar in the back bottom of tank 25w heater about 9...

your tank looks great and i think the red macro gives a neat texture and color to the tank

yes most shrooms prefer shady areas if yours don't look happy move them till you find a spot they like

i agree skip the ugf it will just cause problems with nitrates, i would use the whisper to run filter floss and carbon/phosban as needed and add a couple powerheads to the tank for circulation

it looks awesome man i can't wait to see some rock and sand in there

he has his lights and fan wired to the computer connector
