  1. Would silicone be suitable to bond the lighting unit clips to the roof of the aquarium lid?? How much weight can silicone hold? The total weight of the lights and reflector isnt very heavy
  2. Ok so called both Hutt pets and Animates $55 a bulb for the 24W T5 HO GLO ones And $39 for the LIFE GLOW, but i dont know what they are like, would they be a cheaper option thats just as good?
  3. http://www.hollywoodfishfarm.co.nz/prod ... hp?id=1911 For reflectors - warehouse mirrors siliconed to the lip of the tank
  4. Holy cow! lol Idk, it is still in the box, i need to buy some tubes for it first do u have the same tank as me?
  5. This ? and the plants i mentioned in the my other post : viewtopic.php?f=3&t=44226
  6. Heya Stephan I did end up getting one. I got the 24W T5 HO system, it cost me $128 from hutt pets.
  7. Heya you may or not have seen my last post about upgrading my tanks lighting, but i have now brought the lighting fixture i wanted. Its a "GLO T5 HO " 2 x 24 Watt lighting system. I was going to mount it under my tanks lid, and add some warehouse mirrors, and the what i hoped was some cheap lights from the "lighting guy " The lights at the pet store were $40 each for the 24W T5HO 6500K, 10k and also available in 18K, but i couldn't really afford two of them plus the system, so i assumed i could get some from this "lighting guy" theirs are $25 each, but the highest kelvin rating is 6000...? Could i use them and still get very good results? And if your wondering about my brothers tank, it is doing quite nicely, there is some nice growth starting to happen, we have had few problems with allege, but with the water changes it seems to be ok. Ill post pictures if i can find the cam
  8. Hell yea im excited lol, i love this stuff Dont act like you dont hehe
  9. Well if i go for 4 lamps the i should be sweet, and YUS!!!!! about the PMMD !! where u getting yours from?
  10. 76 x 38 x 71 cm (LxDxH) I want to grow hair grass, dont know if that is possible with the depth of the tank.. ? Hey is PMMD just as good as the expensive flourish stuff ?
  11. Are you using florish ? can that be swaped for that PMMD stuff? Im going to stick the same lamps onto my tank, using the $9.95 lamps from the warehouse and the $499 bulbs, 6400K. I was thinking of clipping two on each side as my tank is quite deep the light would need to be stronger... ?
