How big is your tank?
Most of my 2feeters run on total 72w of light. so tell me if I'm crazy.

My main 2feeter runs on 110W.

=====

Lighting your aquarium won't burn a hole in your pocket la. Not like it's gonna be on 24 hours a day.

, So my conclusion.

NO 2 x 14w 10 000k T5NO is NOT MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR PLANT PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

Unless you're lighting a less than 1foot nano tank , then it is lol.
What you need to tell us,

How big is your tank
What you intend to plant.


Added on December 9, 2010, 2:02 amIf it's just moss and crypts, then it's fine I suppose. your tank will look sad and dark though. but that's just my opinion

Mine's 2 1/2 Feet Tank.

Actually my LFS says normal florescent light can already, plant won't die one.

I manage to DIY my own Light for under RM50.

Bought a

1) T5 24W 6400K Light Spectrum with modified power cable plug in direct no need ballast.
2) Aluminum Reflector.
3) 2 x florescent small light holder to attach to reflector.
4) 2 x Plastic Holder to hold the light.
5) PVC Casing to strengthen the reflector back bone.

Walaueh Damn bloody bright.


aBc!!

Petfamily = look messy, Irene is better
NA = promotion tank plant look messy and not healthy, others look ok only
Ikano EA = look healthy fresh
88 sunway mas = look healthy fresh,alot of choices

@unknown warrior.

There's a difference between cannot die one and thrive with optimum health..

If it's just to maintain it 'like that' there. 24w would be enough to sustain my 3feeter lol.


Added on December 10, 2010, 3:22 amNot my best tank.
But just saying this is what i got in 3 months.

110w + 4bps c02, + daily brighty K and step 1 dosing.. (1 pump)

Bukan main main punya health. wakakaka


Added on December 10, 2010, 3:24 amIf you're good with DIY.. add more!

2 1/2 feet, with total wattage from T5 of 150w I dare say you can plant almost everything already =D
