john1 Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Hi Kellz You said you've got 2 x 20W. Strange for a 200l tank. According to the liters, it should be a 4 footer. According to the wattage, they are 2 footer. Usually 10W per foot. It also depends on the depth. Some books recommend 3 tubes. But you should have at least 2 tubes the length of your tank John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 My 200L is a 4 foot, but has 2X3 foot tubes. Most bought tanks seem to be significantly underpowered as far as light goes for plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 If I remember right, animates was selling what I assume was their small white worms culture for about $10. You're probably much better off getting it direct from the source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
