one MH 150w each 2ft.. so total 4 bulbsred plant ? all green only ... red not important .. HAHA ... jkg jkg . ADA MH bulb blardy expensive ...1k dunno .. i was thinking the same thing .. two high flow ones .. one on each side.if only one side, i afraid the other side will not hv water flow at all. |

if u wanna cheap can mix holland sand with ADA Amazonia ..last time i did that.. ok also ...plant are growing well .. the layers are : (from bottom)
Holland Sand --> Amazonia II (with 3-4 bacterballs inside) --> Amazonia II Powder powder is not necessery but it gives better grip for the foreground plant such as HC, Glosso or Cendol .. This post has been edited by coldfusionpower: Jan 10 2009, 09:42 PM |
