Ant N Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 I am moving my africans into a much larger tank and need to set up lighting. What is the best light to use. No plant to worry about I just want to show the fishes colour, with out washing them out. 700 high tank so alot of water to penetrate.I was thinking of using a small string of blue LED christmas lights for a moonlight effect,any thoughts? Thanks Ant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smidey Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 as you are not having plants it does not matter what lighting you use. you just need as much lighting as it takes to see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smidey Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 i have two fluros on my 1000mm tank & they work fine. they are the plant growth tubes but weren't overly sucessful when it was a planted tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
